The Engineering Navigator is a prototype AI-powered platform that connects students, families, and educators to engineering opportunities across the U.S. To show the power of this tool, we're focusing on North Carolina, where we're mapping local events and programs to show what's possible when communities are connected.

Future Tense: A Vibecoding Experience for Educators
After 3+ years of AI panels and predictions, most people still haven't experienced the technology in a way that makes the stakes visceral. This hands-on workshop changes that. Participants will "vibe code"--building functional software through conversation with AI, no technical background required. You'll create your first learning tool in 10 minutes, iterate with peers, and leave with a working prototype. We'll close by exploring what this means for the future of learning and the future of work: What happens when anyone can build software? What skills matter when routine tasks get automated? Less philosophizing, more co-creating.
