Square One Education Network is a non-profit organization based in Southfield, MI that aims to mobilize STEM education by connecting students to their future. They offer a range of Innovative Vehicle Design (IVD) challenges, including Full Scale, Mini, Autonomous, V2X, and Underwater, which provide students with hands-on learning experiences to improve their mathematics, science, and technology skills. Square One's IVD Challenge Teams are eligible for grants from the Michigan Department of Education, which can be used to cover registration fees, training, materials, and other team expenses.
With a focus on empowering teachers, engaging students, and equipping them with cost-effective STEM solutions, Square One also promotes diverse career pathways and collaborates with industry partners to fund student teams and keep the content relevant and current. Their design challenges not only spark interest and engagement in the classroom but also address the NGSS Engineering Practices, providing high school students with authentic learning opportunities to incorporate innovation and engineering into their vehicle designs.
