Greenpower Education Trust Graphic design support
Greenpower Education Trust is a Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths (STEM) charity that engages young people (aged 11-24) in STEM learning through designing and racing electric cars.
As well as STEM education, the project helps develop problem-solving skills, resilience, self-esteem, teamwork, and organisation, valuable skills for the next generation tackling environmental and social challenges.
Enhancing Greenpower’s visual resources
I have created newsletters, fundraising pitch decks, race programmes, how-to guides, and event graphics for Greenpower. Most recently, I refreshed and enhanced their how-to guides, making them more engaging and informative for teams taking part. This included:
General guides for each Formula category
A primary school teachers' guide
Updated portfolio guides, helping students create award-winning documentation
Drawing on my experience helping a local primary school build and race their own Goblin car, I identified ways to improve the primary school portfolio guide, ensuring it was not just visually appealing but also provided practical, creative, and educational enhancements:
Encouraging students to research race car graphics and demonstrate how it influenced their own designs
Adding guidance on researching careers in STEM
Introducing a guide to free design and CAD software available for schools
Creating a mini Goblin car net, allowing students to design and build their own model cars
By thinking beyond aesthetics, I ensured these guides were more user-friendly, engaging, and valuable to young learners, helping teachers and students get the most out of the Greenpower experience.
