INTRODUCTIONThe capabilities and enthusiasm which exists within our children is a blessing for Australia’s future. Engaging their interests in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics are critical to the future growth and competitiveness of our nation.

As was recently highlighted by our Chief Scientist of Australia, “The enemy of our future prosperity is complacency. Past investments in skills development have underpinned our strong economy and enviable lifestyle, which in turn have diminished our sense of urgency. While our school system remains above average among OECD countries, the

achievement of our students across science, literacy and numeracy is declining”.

“To meet the challenges of ever more sophisticated international competition in advanced products and services, employers need to be able to access an increasingly skilled workforce, whose skills include traditional sciences and mathematics, communications technologies (ICT), and the 21st century skills that prepare our youth for a lifetime of unfolding career opportunities”.

Dr Alan Finkel AO Chief Scientist Australia (2017).

STEM is not about ‘what you learn’ ... it ’s not about ‘more maths’ or ‘more science’. STEM is about ‘how you bring together what you learn to solve problems’ ... ‘its what you do with what you learn’. Driving student interest in STEM is about maximising the value they gain from the education process and helping them focus this in a way which will prepare them for the transition to the world of work.

A focus on STEM education is a driver which will produce innovators and innovations which will help Australia compete in a competitive world stage.

This STEM challenge aims at engaging students with an inspirational project which they can relate to, the colonisation of Mars. Students are required to bring together, what they learn in the classroom, and combine it with a range of soft skills such as teamwork, communication, collaboration and innovation to solve a complex problem. It is a challenge designed to expand their thinking.

I wish all the students well and look forward to seeing the outcome of their innovations.

AN INITIATIVE OF

For StudentsThe SPACE in Schools STEM Challenge tasks school students in years 5 - 10 to design and build a virtual Bio-Medical Space Hub proposed for construction on the surface of Mars. The Challenge is separated into two divisions or classes.

Primary: Years 5 -6

Secondary: Years 7 - 10

The students’ task is to form a virtual design company which will make a bid for the design of the Bio-Medical Space Hub. They will have to build a 3D model of the Space Hub and then present their design ideas to a team of industry judges.

The challenge is an exciting and fun learning environment for students. Students are encouraged to go beyond the minimum, be creative and innovative to explore different design options. Some of the problems students will face when designing the Bio-Medical Hub may combine the challenges faced by engineers when building a full-scale hospital with those required when designing small operational spaces on the Future Submarine project.

The program will expose students to 3D design software and provide design challenges that will provide opportunities for creativity. The problem will introduce students to virtual reality software, help students develop problem-solving skills and will promote working and contributing to a team environment.

This competition will allow schools to participate in a complex STEM program and does not require to have access to significant Design and Technology workshop facility.

The winning teams will have the opportunity to undertake STEM industry visits.

For TeachersThis project is designed so as not require teachers to have any unique or specialised skills. There is no need for knowledge of coding or specific Design & Technology skills. This project is all about having the students think through a problem of human habitation, brainstorm a broad range of ideas and concepts and then rationalising the best of these ideas into a solution that meets the design criteria.

The project has students drawing on knowledge and skills in science and maths and then using this knowledge in the context of solving a real problem. They should develop design scenarios and then use research in all areas of Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics (STEM) to develop their concept for a Biomedical Space Hub.

3D Design: We have specified the use of a product called Sketch-up upon which the students will build a 3D model of their design. Sketch-up is a straightforward and easy to use 3D modeling tool which the students will learn quite quickly. There is a plethora of on line training material on how to use Sketch-up.

OVERVIEW

5TM

AN INITIATIVE OF



You are a team of Engineers, Scientist and Entrepreneurs and you must form a virtual company consisting of a minimum three and maximum five students who will all have different roles and responsibilities in the process of designing the Bio-Medical Space Hub.

As a newly formed company, you’ll need to create a well-structured organisation. Each member of your team needs a clear role, title and share the workload for the duration of the project. These roles MAY include the following:

• Team Leader

• Team Scientist

• Design Engineer

• Virtual Reality Engineer

• Mars Environmental Engineer

• Marketing and Communications Manager

As a new business, you’ll need to come up to speed quickly on all things involved in space travel. You will need to understand how a crew might use the hub and define a definition for the use of the Hub.

Setting up on a new planet will require some detailed planning. You are new to the space industry so you’ll need to learn about the latest issues influencing space travel.

The stand-alone, modular Bio-medical Space Hub should be designed to operate as a laboratory, medical centre and operating theatre. You will need to consider design options which will set your design apart from the competition.

Your task is to not only design the Bio-medical Space Hub, but you must present and sell your ideas to industry professionals. You’ll need to create marketing material and develop branding awareness for your company and your design. You could achieve this through the development of logos, advertisement, media exposure, social media and marketing materials.

Presentation of your project will involve the following elements:1. Development of a virtual 3D model of your design built using Sketch-up. 2. A trade display which highlights your team, company profile, the science behind your design, the advantages

and the benefits your design. These advantages may include transportability, operational efficiency and sustainability.

3. A six-minute verbal presentation, in essence, a sales pitch, describing your team, your design and its benefits. This presentation will be delivered to a group of Engineers, Scientists and Managers from industry.

4. A 12 page A3 or up to 24 page A4 portfolio covering your company, your team and your design.

Your project will be assessed based on a range of criteria including the application of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics principles, any collaboration you undertake and your design process.

SPACE HUB SPECIFICATIONSpace and weight are significant limitations to a design of the Bio-medical Space Hub. You will need to be very conservative in the choice and use of materials and layout. The following specifications are critical:

1. The max floor space must be limited to 25 sq meters.2. The building shape is free.3. Window space is free but should be determined based on the research you undertake.

The facility must be able to facilitate the following:1. Act as a medical centre and operating theatre if needed.2. Be able to be used as a laboratory for undertaking scientific and biomedical experiments. 3. It must be able to store and provide access to all of your medical and experimental supplies.4. Be self-sustainable if possible

Other Considerations1. Layout - This is one of the most critical aspects of the design. You need to consider how they move about the

hub and work in unison as a team.

• What is the work-flow/process of preparing, experiments or performing an operation?

• Do scientists use stations to complete different tasks?

• How do the scientists access the raw ingredients, through to disposing of the waste? 2. Storage of equipment - Space is a premium inside the hub so a conventional home pantry might not be the

solution. How do you bring a sense of structure and organisation to the storage of equipment?

• Where is equipment stored?

• How can different equipment be stored? Is there an order of storage which will impact to access?

• How do the doctors access equipment for operations as compared with experiments?3. Disposing of waste/ rubbish

• How do you dispose of waste?

• How do you minimise the space take up on board a Hub by rubbish?

• Will there be an odour from the rubbish you’ll need to consider?4. Appliances

• Commercial appliances vs equipment suitable for space travel, what’s the difference?

• Size of appliances vs efficiency?

• What appliances do you need?5. Human Ergonomics

• How high do you make a bench top, how deep should a bench be? All these considerations are related to human ergonomics



TM

AN INITIATIVE OF

1. Produce 3D Model of the Space Hub

Produce a 3D model of your chosen space. The model should allow for presentation as an interactive walk-through. You MAY use any 3D software package; however, the recommended software package for this project will be Sketch-Up.

2. Project Portfolio (up to 12 x A3 or 24 x A4 pages including front cover)

The portfolio should contain two sections. The first 2-3 pages should focus on your team and your virtual company with the remainder on your design and its unique strategic advantages.

3. Trade Booth

Produce a trade display. A trestle table will be available on the day of the competition. The trade display should highlight your marketing material and be a platform for you to promote your design to the judges.

4. Verbal Presentation

Prepare a six-minute oral presentation. As an introduction, it should cover the role of each member of your team, title, members responsibilities. The bulk of your oral presentation should focus on explaining your design and the thinking behind the design. Your presentation will be to a group of industry personnel.

OBJECTIVE - OVERVIEW

9TM

AN INITIATIVE OF



3D MODEL DEVELOPMENTA significant component of any product development process is the development of a 3D model. It is from a 3D model that many design decisions are made. A 3D model can also be a very useful component of the sales process.

A vital component of this challenge will be to have the students develop a 3D model of their design using a product called Sketch-Up. Sketch-Up is available for download from the following schools’ web page. This website also provides curriculum materials and tutorials specifically designed for students and the classroom. Students will be able to download a version of Sketch-Up for use at home to help develop their skills.

https://www.sketchup.com/education/sketchup-for-schools

Students will be required to bring their 3D Sketch-up model on a memory stick to the competition.

Virtual Reality hardware will be available at the competition for the students to use. The students will be able to upload and walk through their models.

If schools would like to implement their own Virtual Reality (VR) environments REA can facilitate the equipment specification and access to software which would allow the school to undertake VR within the school.

The system which will be provided for the students to use during the competition will be based on IrisVR software & tools.

It is not a requirement of this challenge for the students to understand the complexities and use of the VR technology. We will have people available on the day of the competition to help transfer the model into the VR equipment.

Project DocumentationThe 3D Sketch-Up model can produce 2D images. These images should form part of the team portfolios. A drawing of the 3D design, including critical dimensions, must be included as part of the portfolio.



TM

AN INITIATIVE OF

PROJECT PORTFOLIOStudents are required to produce three copies of a 12 page A3 or 24 page A4 portfolio covering the critical components of their project development.

The portfolio should be in two sections; the first 2-3 pages should focus on your team and your virtual company with the remainder on your design and its unique strategic advantages.

A team’s Portfolio tells the story of the team’s journey including the knowledge and skills they have acquired along the way. It is also a useful tool for selling the team’s capabilities and the design of the Biomedical Space Hub.

A portfolio is a professional business document. Attention to detail is paramount. Most importantly, teams need to read the Portfolio judging scorecards carefully to ensure that all areas of the assessment process are addressed within the context of the Portfolio.

The main elements of your portfolio should include the following:

• Team roles and duties,

• The science and engineering behind the significant aspects of your design,

• The human environmental design including energy generation, usage and storage on board the Hub and propose alternative and innovative energy solutions that could address areas such as, lighting and room.

• A study of impacts of the atmosphere on Mars.

• Your design cycle and Innovation,

• Your marketing strategy

2D drawings of your 3D design showing key dimensions should form a part of the portfolio.

VERBAL PRESENTATIONTeams will be required to deliver an oral presentation of their design to the Judges. The submission must last longer than six (6) minutes. Teams must bring a laptop with any slideshow or other multimedia files that form part of the presentation. Teams should have available VGA and HDMI cables to connect to a data projector/TV monitor.

Who Needs to Attend?

All team members must be present and contribute to the Verbal Presentation.

Team Preparation

Each team is required to prepare an oral presentation. Teams need to have all presentation resources tested and ready to go before entering the room. Most importantly, teams should read the oral presentation judging scorecard carefully to ensure their presentation features all elements and content that the verbal presentation judges will be scoring.

Judging Process / Procedure

Teams will be given time at the start of their presentation to set-up and test their laptop and any other presentation resources. The team will inform the judges when they are ready to begin. At the conclusion of the team’s presentation, the judges may choose to provide some feedback or ask any clarifying questions they feel necessary.

Verbal Presentation Judging Provisions.

A meeting room, where the team will deliver their presentation will be made available. This space will include a data projector and screen or large TV monitor. Multimedia sound systems may not always be available, and teams may have to bring portable speakers. If possible, these will be in fixed positions but usually with sufficient cable length to allow teams some freedom for choosing where they wish to locate their laptop. A single table will also be made available with its use and location in the presentation space being optional.
