To coincide with this year's Invention Awards, we've started the National School Inventors Challenge, a contest for students around the country to submit their world-changing ideas and inventions. Here, see engineering students at Miami Coral Park high school putting together plans for a solar-powered bike.
Keep those ideas flowing--it's not to late to enter! For more info for students and teachers thinking of entering, check out the contest website.
