Learning and innovation go hand in hand. The arrogance of success is to think that what you did yesterday will be sufficient for tomorrow.I represented Nigeria and Africa by extension at the 2019 IEEE Integrated STEM Education Conference at Princeton university. There was a lot of discussions about advancing STEM on Saturday March 16th at the McDonnell and Jarwin halls at Princeton university.
The IEEE Integrated STEM Education Conference is highly regarded for known for highlighting cutting-edge research and experiences with integrated approaches to the study of science, math, and technology through experiences and activities based in engineering and other design disciplines. Several teenage boys came from the Philippines to present their work also and I was impressed by the work they did. One paper was entitled; “Developing an Offline Mobile Application with Health Condition Care and First Aid Instruction for Appropriateness of Medical Treatment.” Another one was Starfall as a Basal Reading Program to teach Beginning Reading to Selected ALS Students.
