There's no stopping them! The Nano Ninjas march on to the Super-Regionals after winning the THINK award for their engineering notebook!

We’re happy to write that we recently concluded a successful 2-day training series at Purdue University – the Graduate School! It was a fun 2 days filled with 5 different training sessions – all well attended.

We were able to discuss the benefits of Overleaf, the new Overleaf/Purdue web portal, and lots of questions from the audience!

Exciting news! Overleaf is now collaborating with Caltech to provide Pro accounts to all students, faculty and staff.

On Wednesday, January 27th, the Library’s Research Services department coordinated an Overleaf training as part of their instruction program for Caltech students, faculty and staff.

Earlier this month we ran a short feature about the Nano Ninjas – an all-girls group of 7th and 8th graders who took part in the FIRST Tech Challenge and used Overleaf to create their engineering notebook to record their team and robot's journey throughout the season.

We're delighted to follow up on that post with news that the Nano Ninjas won first place in the Connect Award category at last week's Super Qualifier! They also placed second in the Inspire category, and were nominated for the Control, Motivate & Think Award! Go team!! :)

#9774 Nano Ninjas is an all-girls rookie FIRST Tech Challenge team with 15 passionate 7th and 8th graders. In support of the non-profit organization STEM4Girls, Overleaf was delighted to sponsor them with a free enterprise account for their team! They used the Overleaf account to create their engineering notebook, a way to record their team and robot's journey throughout the season. Here's how they got on...
