3/ Take a picture of your drawing, upload it, and receive your personalised MyMachine Diploma!

tip: —upload your idea in your language (it doesn't have to be English)—

A Manual for Teachers on how to upload (multiple) drawings by multiple students in their class can be found here.

Guidelines

SELECTION OF IDEAS:

In February 2024, we will pick a limited amount of ideas (from each continent, if possible). (It’s not a competition, but more like winning the lottery.)

We will then connect to University Students (product designers) who will bring those selected ideas to life.

If an idea from your class gets chosen, then:
1/ We will notify you personally.
2/ With your class, you will be able to see work-in-progress pictures and/or videos from the university students.
3/ You will be able to see pictures and/or videos from the final result: a proof-of-concept made by the university students!

IF A DREAM MACHINE IDEA FROM YOUR CLASS GETS SELECTED
Then, we expect you to show the university students’ results (photos and/or videos) to the students in your class and send us some pictures and/or videos showing how your students respond to the proof-of-concept.

We are very much looking forward to seeing the Dream Machines from your class on our world map!

Our previous MyMachine DreamsDrop Campaigns have seen ❤️ Teachers from 30+ countries (on all continents) joining.
We have been able to pick 113 ideas so far, and
university students in Belgium (Howest University of Applied Sciences), Mexico (Monterrey Tech), and Costa Rica (Tecnólogico de Costa Rica) have created proofs-of-concept:
