90% Coders do brilliantly well in STEM

Yes, you read correctly, 90% of coders do brilliantly well in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math’s) if their coding fundamentals are clear. In the last 2 years, parents’ & students’ coding awareness has got increased but still, they are looking for a genuine Ed-Tech company that can quantify the outcome of overall learning.

Coding helps students to understand how technology works around them, fosters creativity, improves math skills, improves writing academic performance, and becomes confident problem solvers. Coding is like any other languages Hindi, Marathi, English, or Tamil & it takes time to command the language. All of us have taken a minimum of 4-5 years to read & write the local language. Like this to become a genuine coder, it takes time.

In the 4th Industrial Revolution

(4IR) which is a fusion of advances in artificial intelligence (AI), robotics, the Internet of Things (IoT), genetic engineering, quantum computing, and many more, learning is a constant endeavor, and to be relevant to this industrial revolution our student’s concepts should be clear which only happen if we help our students to understands the basics of STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering & Mathematics).

All the hardware in our surroundings is getting integrated with the software. Automobile, Retail, Pharma, Education and many more industries are digitizing their product and processes which is a massive opportunity for our students to be part of the 4th industrial revolution.

Incidentally, if the student is not comfortable with technology languages then it’ll be difficult for them to contribute while understanding the system. If they are not able to understand the system then problem identification and solutions can’t be done. Covid-19 has validated the immediate requirement of technology and students who are putting genuine effort to learn various languages will be professionally successful.

I’ll recommend to all the parents & students to 1^st focus on basics of coding and develop the logic to solve the problem. Ensure that as a parent & student, you are able to monitor, measure and analyse your daily progress. What gets measured gets managed.
