Goals as an Educator using Internship experience

One of the goals of the internship with ASSIST at NCSU  is to apply understanding of sensing technologies and system design toward the fabrication of a One Health inspired wearable sensor system. This goal exposed me to different types of emerging issues in our society that students should be made aware of.  Understanding and developing wearables made me a aware of the challenges our society faces and challenges that needs to be researched and analyzed in order to sustain human life.  As an educator, I realize that I should increase the students’ awareness of the One Health Challenges.  In the same way develop and design mathematically lessons that would show students how to use the data collected from these devices to make further predictions, analysis.  The ability to collect and analyze the data would motivate students to design and/or build devices that could solve world challenges involving One Health.

Another goal in the ASSIST program internship is to develop educational lessons focusing on One Health, energy harvesting, sensing, system design, nanotechnology, and prototyping this goal will  allow me to not only educate student about the One Health but also to inform teachers about one health and energy harvesting in order to sustain human life.  This experience allowed me to work with other educators to plan and design a lesson plan that I can use to train other teacher in mathematics and  also team up with other teachers across the curriculum how to incorporate One Health engineering design into a class lesson for the entire school.
