when i was asked to lead an independent review into digital skills by ed miliband , i must admit i did not quite know what i was letting myself in for . but i agreed to do it for the same reason i founded teentech : out of frustration that so many young people are missing out on the opportunities available to them in an ever - expanding digital world , in spite of being the most tech - savvy generation we have ever had .
a panel of distinguished judges - plus a couple of journalists ( including me ) - assembled at the royal society last week to decide who would get a trip to the palace . what was remarkable was how little these teenage inventors had relied on teachers for their ideas . once set loose on their teentech projects , they had done it all themselves , although they had not been shy about consulting outside experts both in britain and overseas for advice and market information .
an e - water tap for africa , a flat - pack disaster home , sunglasses to monitor epilepsy and a guitar with never - ending strings were just some of the winning innovations showcased by talented teenagers at the 2015 teentech awards . . every year the finalist projects get more and more impressive . some teams built full working prototypes , others shared exciting new concepts and our industry judges were bowled over by the creativity and skills shown by young people across the uk .
last year’s teentech finalists emma and harry who hosted the ceremony , have gone on to work directly with industry leaders on their ideas . harry who won two categories last year with his reimagining of the humble hairdryer is now in talks with a major manufacturer to bring his idea to life . emma , who went on to win the big bang , has been offered a grant from aviva to work further on her idea for a motion sensing glove that translated sign language into speech .
the duke of york told the award winners that it was clear that all the ideas were
yours and yours alone
but praised the schools for setting pupils free to think for themselves , and putting them in touch with people who could help in the outside world . he said every one of the projects had an application out in the marketplace - so who knows , perhaps in a few years ' time , we ' ll be talking about a new generation of teentech tycoons .
in 2013 maggie was asked by the labour party to write a report on digital skills and agreed to do it for the same reason she founded teentech – out of frustration that so many young people were missing out on the opportunities available to them in an ever - expanding digital world , in spite of being the most tech - savvy generation we’ve ever had . however , in order to assemble the best people onto the uk digital skills taskforce and prevent any bias in the recommendations , this was undertaken as an independent review with no input from any political party .
are you an innovator ? do you have an idea which could make life easier , simpler or better ? we want you to use your imagination , to think creatively . this is a chance to ask “what if ? ” or even build a fun example of what this might look like . the teentech awards are for uk students from 11 - 16 ( years 7 to 11 ) and 17 - 18 ( years 12 to 13 ) working in teams of up to three to look at problems large and small to see if they can find a better way of doing things .
led by maggie philbin , former tomorrow ' s world presenter , technology broadcaster and chief executive of teentech , the uk digital skills taskforce was commissioned by labour leader ed miliband . the independent taskforce engaged with hundreds of organisations to look at what needs to be done to nurture home - grown talent to meet the needs of britain ' s modern economy . their aim has been to gather practical suggestions and understand what people working within education and industry felt needed to change , based on real - world experience . techuk were represented on the taskforce by ceo julian david and associate director carrie hartnell .
teams will spend the day working to create technology solutions for real - world problems . we call it a techathon , because it is open to any use of modern technology you can imagine . this could be programming , circuitry , 3d modeling , photo editing , or anything else . no experience is required and tech - industry professionals will be onsite as mentors for the entirety of the event . at the end of the event , teams will have the opportunity to pitch their project to a panel of judges , and the winners will have the opportunity to submit their projects to the teentech wold pitch , a global competition .
more than 65 % of students will work in jobs that don’t even exist today . ¹ we want to help prepare them for that future by getting them excited about where computer science ( cs ) can take them . so we’re building programs and supporting partners that reach millions of students every year , with a focus on girls and others who are underrepresented in the field today .

teenagers from across the country have dreamed up inventions from play parks that generate power to wardrobes that choose an outfit , in a bid to make life ‘better , simpler and easier’ in the future .
whimsical ideas entered for the teen tech awards include a pen that spots spelling mistakes , and a way to grow your own clothes .
other designs , which have been presented at the royal society in london today , aimed to solve some of society’s more pressing problems and give people suffering from dementia , for example , extra care .
teenagers have dreamed up inventions of the future , including a pen that spots spelling mistakes , for the teen tech awards . the ' spellomatic pen ' was the brainchild of ( from left to right ) lottie richter ( 14 ) , izzie woodland ( 13 ) and freya child ( 14 ) from oldfield school in somerset
the overall winners were students from birkdale school in sheffield with their idea to make cars safer by lowering the risk of slipping in bad conditions .
max doody and james bradley , both 15 , explained : ' we’re both keen motorsports fans and were chatting about the cars in a maths lesson .
' our idea was that if a fan was used to suck the car down to the road , traction levels would be higher so in wet or icy conditions , the car would be a lot safer . '
the awards is part of a drive by scientists and educators to increase the number of teenagers obtaining qualifications in science , technology , engineering and mathematics – known as stem subjects .
a total of one hundred teenagers from across the uk were picked to present their work to a team of judges , who included top gear’s james may , stephen fry , tv presenters kate russell and maggie philbin , as well as academics .
the ' spellomatic pen ' was the brainchild of three girls from oldfield school in somerset .
it was designed to detect handwriting and point out if a word is spelt incorrectly . while it could be used by anyone , the smart pen is intended to help dyslexic people , in particular .

a team of three girls from hampton school in greater london , came up with scanner - planner , which is a magnet that ‘solves all your best before date worries’ .
the magnet would clip to a fridge and set off an alarm when an item inside is out of date . in order to use the device , people would need to type the date into the device – before promptly forgetting to eat it .
year 8 pupils at sandbach high school in cheshire created a project called grow your own clothes .
' trends moves so quickly these days , that as people try to keep up with fashion , their old clothes just get wasted . . . we wanted to create a biodegradable material that was affordable and on - trend and could be grown by anybody , ' they said .
to do this , the pupils mixed green tea with sugar and cider vinegar to create a culture that creates thin layers of fibres . it takes up to a month to develop and the resulting fabric can be dyed naturally with beetroot juice .
sarah griffin , 15 , a student from loreto grammar school , cheshire , come up with the idea for ’dementiago , ’ a waterproof anklet that can be worn by dementia sufferers and allows family member and carers to track them using a smartphone app .
pupils from the hayfield school , doncaster , created snap - wrap , which is an idea for smartwatch that tells people if they have eaten their five - a - day . alessia coe , thomas cerenko and drew budtz are pictured left to right wearing their design
it would contain a microchip with the person’s name , age , address , next of kin and medical information on it , which could be scanned by medical professionals in the event of an emergency .
griffin designed the anklet to give people with dementia more freedom and family members peace of mind that their relative is safe .
she won the healthcare category in the competition last year with a blood glucose monitor for diabetics , and is currently raising money to put it into production .
a team of students from stocksbridge high school , south yorkshire , invented the microglove for deaf people . using built - in microphones , the glove would translate speech into text , which is displayed on a touchscreen .
the person using the glove could either speak back naturally or even use the glove to reply in another language of their choice .
all the inventions are intended to change the future of britain and there are winners of each of the 15 categories , as well as an overall champion . the duke of york also attended the competition .
