"Tell me and I will forget; Teach me and I may remember; involve me and I will understand." STEM education/jobs are supposed to be the future, and we need more students entering those fields, but just how are we to do that with so many students fearing math or viewing math as a foreign language which they don't understand? That's where I decided to change things up. This computer allows them real world/modern day experience and makes their learning come to life. It allows me to create more engaging and realistic lessons and allows me to show them the connection between math and science and break down the barriers that contain their fears.
