Session description

Learn how high school students, University computer science students, and St. Luke's Sim Center - 3D Print and Innovation Lab collaborated to create a prototype to engage middle school students in STEAM careers. This collaboration took place over the course of a 15-week semester where students worked to produce several prototypes for a healthcare simulation lab. A version of the Agile Software Development cycle was followed throughout the collaboration. Attendees of this session will learn details about the students' journey through this process.
