Event Description:
A 90-minute in-person workshop for school teachers and their students as part of the Teesside University - Hello World event.

In this workshop, participants will take part in a team Website Design Challenge using Google AI tools - Gemini, NotebookLM and Stitch. This is a concept and design challenge, not a live build session.

Participants will work in teams of 3–5 to design a Website concept that solves a real problem for young people.

Challenge domain websites include: a) Health b) Wellbeing c) Learning, Skills & Careers or d) Creativity & Fun.

Important team requirement:
Each team must have an adult supervisor - Teacher or GDG Hello World Ambassadors.

Adult supervisors will use their registered Google accounts to access the in-person workshop resources and Google AI tools. Participants will work under supervision and should use avatars only, with no real names or identifying details included in their content.

To kick start the workshop, each team needs the following to start the challenge:

• a Website name
