about their tool design that must fit the theme contest which is “Mechanical education game
tool.” After being selected as the 15 best proposals, they sent a presentation video. Last, they
were invited to attend an online Question and Answer session to answer the judges’
questions.
Inggi Hilmawan shared his feeling toward the competition, “Number of the participants drove
us into nervous and pessimistic. Therefore, we didn’t care about being a winner, we just
determined to give the best,” said him. Fortunately, their work has paid off, they got two
awards at the same time.

confident participant. “I was pleased with the result, but the more important is we can learn
how to strive with might and main and also trust to our abilities.”
