STEM activity - Brain impact simulator

The other part of the video provided an awesome opportunity to hack STEM

Getting into data science, especially designing a new helmet to be able to protect the head from a concussion. It has been interesting over the years having to do concussion tests on students that have had a head clash at lunchtime on the field, also it has been surprising the number of students that have head injuries in school that need time. What a cool way to integrate health and digital technologies using data, as well as getting to understand the issues and why http://www.bluecard.co.nz/ is such an important initiative in sports today.

Integrating technology into this as well as some schools have vacuum formers in which students could investigate the concept and design, and test these. 

Also the idea of developing a textiles solution as well.

Building models to understand and mitigate brain injury

It works with a micro:bit!!!!!

It can also be created with an arduino as well.

What awesome ideas for Year 9 or 10.
