 On Oct. 31, 2024, the Pink Titans exhibited FIRST Robotics as part of the site tour of David & Mary Thomson Collegiate Institute at the 15th Canadian EdTech Leadership Conference on AI in Scarborough, Ontario. Five international teachers, including those from Sweden, visited the school to see the implementation of technology in education. Opportunities provided by the Pink Titans throughout the year helped to get more students introduced to applied technology and excited about STEM. The Pink Titans discussed the benefits of participating in FIRST Robotics on their personal growth and development of skills essential for success after high school. Thanks Principal Choudhry for the opportunity!
