TechTechBoom.com is a new BETA (code word for not fully finished) website and is a subsidiary of Mario Armstrong Media, LLC. (http://www.MarioArmstrong.com) What’s the mission? Simple, it’s a place to help teens to connect, be inspired, supported and motivated to pursue STEM (Science Technology Engineering and Math) academics and careers! We need more young minds wanting to fill our tech pipeline of the future.
-
The vision for this site was Mario Armstrong’s and he wanted it to be a cool and very informative tech hangout for teens but instead of hiring adults to design it (boring and done already) he wanted to flip the model. So his company hired 11 high school students from different grades, backgrounds and tech interests and they created what you see today, that being the first STEM website and community built by teens for teens! The site offers a cool hangout place, solid STEM information and resources all centered around STEM.

We want to be the hub of all science, technology, engineering and math content, news, events, scholarships, programs, contests, internships, mentoring and more. If it’s STEM and it involves teens – it will be on this site – no more islands of STEM info.

Top News - High-tech cheating? Students see it differently - 1 views

Rather than blame technology for enabling cheating in schools, maybe it's time to rethink learning and assessment in the digital era
