Congratulations to the organizers! Maria Inviato dal mio dispositivo Samsung -------- Messaggio originale -------- Da: Suchith Anand <suchith.an...@nottingham.ac.uk> Data: 15/02/17 19:14 (GMT+01:00) A: discuss@lists.osgeo.org, geofor...@lists.osgeo.org Oggetto: [OSGeo-Discuss] STEM education using Open Principles Over the first week of January 2017, a group of 60 secondary school students gathered at Marian University College, Bagamoyo for a ground-breaking training session - the Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) Youth Boot Camp organised by Projekt Inspire in collaboration with the Ramani Huria team. These students, hailing from different regions of Tanzania (Dar es Salaam, Moshi, Arusha, Mbeya, to name a few), were there to be introduced to GIS and web mapping.
