E-waste Management
Even though students learn science, math, and history at school, there’s another topic that’s quickly approaching, and that’s computer science, e-waste management specifically. To put it simply, this is recognizing the impact of electronic waste and responsible disposal.
One school in North Carolina said they are “Providing technology tools and training to bridge the digital divide.” The organization collects, refurbishes, and awards computers to students, and Kramden also works to inspire students to succeed by teaching them critical computer, software, and internet skills.” With this comes the necessity to recycle computers and reuse their parts, as so lessen e-waste. While students are learning on the computers, they can also learn about recycling these parts to help have a positive impact on the environment (EWaste).
