STEM literacy for industry 4.0 Sunday, 21 Oct 2018 The Star Online
Malaysia’s STEM initiative Most technical problems can be solved with the application of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM)
But most importantly is having the people behind the technologies with the foresight and interest to connect the dots and innovate.
This is the vision of the STEM initiative in Malaysia. The initiative is ultimately tasked with providing a pipeline of students that will eventually fill the one million new STEM careers that Malaysia will need by 2020.
These jobs include doctors and technicians as well as careers of the Industrial Revolution 4.0, such as data scientists and programmers.
The Education Ministry also believes that a core of STEM literacy and the values and approaches from a STEM education are integral in life and career, even outside of STEM.
Stepping up STEM interest One of the most compelling methods is to provide STEM experiences to students through extra-curricular activities. The research team followed a group of young students that demonstrated clear passion in STEM through joining the Aspiring Scientists Summer Internship Programme (ASSIP) and completing 300 hours of research, despite their early age. What was even more interesting was that most of the encounters were introduced to the students through parents, relatives or friends. Thus, a combination of being led to an encounter by a trusted source and the inspiration from the encounter itself was enough to ignite a passion and interest in STEM among the students.
This is the direction that our Education Ministry is taking – providing quality STEM experiences to students across the country.
Let Look at EDUSPEC.
STEM Computer Science and STEM Robotics STEM with Computer Science is more than just learning how to program. It is also about learning how to succeed in a high-technology and socially interconnected world, embracing exploration, discovery, creation, collaboration and problem-solving
Digital School Solutions (DSS) The vision of the Digital School Solutions is to digitalize a school’s learning and management system to equip students with 21st century competencies and skill sets. Eduspec Services for Parents (ESP) The ESP model aims to foster the involvement of parents in empowering them with accurate information regarding their children’s education. By using the AllSchools mobile application as a communication platform, parents can review the children’s progress and make use of the various supplementary guides to enable them achieve their objectives.
Hence, we are able to provide a platform for experience and knowledge sharing among schools in ASEAN. We believe that building a network between schools will encourage innovation and provide a sense of community and support. Aside from working with schools, our unique business model also includes empowering parents in school education to ensur
Internally, we have streamlined our offerings into three main solutions – Programs, Digital School, and IESS.
Eduspec’s programs are STEM-focused and include STEM with Computer Science and STEM with Robotics. For Digital School Solutions (DSS), we have built up more education tools for schools to integrate into their hardware. The new education tools will enable the Company to serve the schools better.
eduspec is a syariah compliant stock.....Institution likes syariah compliant stocks plus it will attract Mustlim retailers too...Big potential for eduspec
Company is starting again on a clean slate and has finally turned a corner in my humble opinion. Genuine turnaround story.
First time announced profit after 9 consecutive quarters of losses.
Its the only public listed company in the country that has STEM centric and proven digital education solutions for schools which has been emphasized by the PM and Education Minister numerous times in the past 10 months.
I reckon EDUSPEC is well poised to win big government contracts as allocated in the 2019 budget. Share price is well below current NTA of almost 7.5 sen, additionally.
Seriously to make big bucks$$$, edu must diversify to big time business, like O & G. Remember SApura Kencana was initially listed as a ACE co which was later promoted to Main Market. After the balance sheet excercise, it is definitely an attractive target for takeover.
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
