FULL STEAM AHEAD 2019

 

OPPORTUNITY FOR YR 9 & 10 GIRLS WHO LIKE TO SOLVE PROBLEMS AND ARE INQUIRERS, THINKERS & WANT TO BE CHANGE MAKERS 

THIS PROGRAM CAN BE USED FOR WORK EXPERIENCE

 

Akorn Educational Services is pleased to offer this amazing opportunity, once again, for Year 9 & 10 girls to participate in the 5-day 2019 FULL STEaM AHEAD - Girls Designing an Inclusive Society program.

In a recent World Report on Disability, it is estimated that 1 in 5 people globally has a disability, which in Australia is calculated to be 4.27 million people. The majority of these people experience social exclusion, discrimination and lack of access to fully participate in society due to the barriers such as built environment and negative attitudes.

Responding to this challenge, students will collaborate to generate ideas and develop assistive/enabling technologies that will overcome said barriers. During the program students will be supported by the Akorn Educational Services team to establish the appropriate analytical framework and user centred design to come up with sustainable and viable solutions.
