TechFire 225 is a team whose goals and priorities reach beyond that Monster PowerCube Placing Machine called a robot. We here at TechFire believe marketing and public relations (MPR) is a vital key to our success and are incredibly ecstatic to introduce our new media segment called “What the Tech?!”
After a rigorous first three weeks of build season, students from TechFire were challenged to brainstorm ideas on how to put the good ole’ TechFire spark out on social media. Meetings spent sifting through Instagram, Facebook and Twitter to gain knowledge about the pros and cons of each medium have certainly paid off. Students decided that a weekly media post seemed to be the happy middle ground for consistency without overpowering our followers with posts. Every Tuesday, our followers can be sure to look out for our weekly TechFire Tuesday post which will include our “What the Tech?!” segment for the week.
Inspired by the National Geographic World magazine feature called “What in the World,” TechFire’s students came up with the brilliant idea of having our followers play a little game each week. The game “What the Tech?!” will feature a magnified picture of a robotics themed object. These objects range from robot parts, outreach presentation items, and even the occasional game piece. Followers will then have the chance to guess in the comments what the object is and we will reveal the answer on the following week along with the next challenge.
Thank you to our amazing follower base for playing along with this exciting game that is not only fun to play but even more fun to create. Be sure to checkout TechFire on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook and we will see you on TechFire Tuesdays. As always, stay forever fiery.
