Rikitik: Science and technology to the rescue of school dropoutsDaniel Carré (Club de sciences de l'école Paul-Hubert)

The major problem I face is the lack of computers. Whether it is research on the Internet, writing Expo-science reports, designing inventive engineering technical illustrations or robotics programming, I'm no longer able to meet the growing demand. My MacBook is the only recent and functional computer we can rely on.

The learning and the motivation of young people is achieved through action, discovery and self fulfilment. In recent years, we had great successes and sometimes great disappointments. But at the end of the day, young people always benefit and and learn.

Your contribution will allow me to continue my educational mission for many years to come.

When we manage to captivate the interest of a student in an extracurricular activity, we are in fact giving him/her more reasons to come to school. Dropouts are a current problem in our society. Young people who participate in the science club activities develop passions and skills that will be beneficial in the future. The region needs qualified employees capable of teamwork. It is precisely these values that are conveyed in the science club of the Paul-Hubert school. We should invest on the education of our future citizens!
