Great Teacher Seminar 2020: Announcing Panelists for Panel Discussion 2 “Role of Companies and Organisation in Supporting STEM Activities”

Great Teacher Seminar 2020: Announcing Panelists for Panel Discussion 2 “Role of Companies and Organisation in Supporting STEM Activities”

It is just a week until the Great Teacher Seminar 2020. Leave a Nest Malaysia Sdn. Bhd. is honoured to announce the Panelists for Panel Discussion 2 entitled “Role of Companies and Organisation in Supporting STEM Activities”. 

Besides teachers, companies and organisations such as NGOs are the main stakeholders that could support students to be interested in STEM activities. Currently, the number of companies that would like to support STEM education has increased as they are more aware of the importance of STEM education towards the sustainability of the talents for the industry. There are also education-related companies that support STEM activities by providing tools and platforms for teachers and parents to teach students at home.

Therefore, in this Panel Session, we will discuss the importance of organisation and companies in supporting teachers to implement or apply STEM-related  activities in their class. We hope after this session, teachers and parents are able to think creatively in enhancing Science and Technology for global happiness.

Here are the honourable Panelists for Panel Discussion 2 “Role of Companies and Organisation in Supporting STEM Activities”
