In 2021 and 2022, Destination Imagination teamed up with Lumen Technologies to create the imagineXperience program. The imagineXperience program was designed to inspire teams of K-12 students to collaborate, innovate, and learn new STEM skills in a noncompetitive environment. It gave students living in underserved communities access to a project-based learning challenge and tools that reinforced social-emotional learning (SEL) competencies\u2014social awareness, relationship skills, self-confidence, and responsible decision-making. It helped students learn about cutting-edge topics, including Artificial Intelligence, and explore the world of creative storytelling. <\/p>\n

The virtual STEM program allowed students to participate no matter where they lived.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Equity is a key component to success in STEM literacy, and we all have a responsibility in helping to ensure that children\u2014particularly underserved students\u2014have access to high-quality STEM learning. In 2021, participation in our pilot program spanned three continents, with teams located in the U.S., Canada, Nigeria, Pakistan, South Africa, Botswana, and Zanzibar. Participants reported that their confidence grew in a variety of areas, including public speaking, teamwork, computer science, robotics, and more.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
