The Story.
Innovator(s)
Pumpkin Patch: Discovery and Domination: Luther A, Jaden W, Vincent B, Alexander P, Te'Vierre K
Problem
Our subject matter expert, Jess Magana, a biology professor at UMKC, challenged us to learn more about invasive species and how they work and travel.
Solution
For our showcase we created a book to display all of the information we gathered.
Target Market
Societal Impact
Our audience will know more about how invasive species tend to be territorial and depending on land, sea, or bacterial disease, it impacts how it travels and spreads.
Next Steps
We still need to work on creating our book and putting more information in it.
Reflection
We did a great job gathering information and putting the tri-fold together. We struggled with getting everyon on the same page on our team. We overcame that by communicating often with all teammates.
Use of Backer Contributions
We only ask that people attend our showcase on June 29 from 9:30-10:30 and 12:00-1:00. Business partners interested in working with our students on future projects, please contact our Director of Community Partnerships, Jake Wingo, at jake.wingo@raypec.org.
