Details

ReadyAI provided training for two full-time instructors from Chengdu STEM Education and Science. The club recruited 17 students in the program, which spanned over 20-30 hours of time. During the training sessions, instructors provided support on the toolkit as well as the project. Because of the low student-to-instructor ratio, the instructors were guiding more so than instructing.

All 17 students participated in WAICY 2018 and two of the teams scored the highest in the China region.
