*DataPoint* Getting Kids into STEM
Recently, this post of the Best Jobs in the US came across my news feed.
Note that “Data Scientist” has been knocked out of first place by “Machine Learning Engineer.” This title didn’t even exist a few years ago.
So then, how do we prepare kids for the future of work when the jobs don’t exist yet. Simple: you prepare them with the fundamentals.
As I recorded this show, I was joined by a distinguished guest rather by surprise. See, anything can happen on a live stream!
