A new innovation lab in Peoria is working to make sure there is no financial divide if a child wants to learn about new technology during summer break.
"I think we see the future now is STEM," Tim Emory said. "It's from kids knowing how to work iPads, artificial intelligence – anything they do in the future will have technology involved.""It starts a lot of time with financial issues and every child not have finances get in the way of accessing the internet or any kind of technology," he said.– not just computers, but 3-D printers, virtual reality, medical production computers, and laser printers.
Ultimately, while it prepares them for the future, it also makes them want to be here because if they want to be here, that means they'll learn more and more, while the financial barrier is removed."That's about the most important part, so our kids can do their homework and also explore, create spaces, and learn about STEM as the world evolves," Emory said.
