Regional Bureau of the International Movement for Leisure Activities in Science and Technology (Milset) has discussed with the Ministry of Education means of applying the educational curriculum, Stem, at the ministry's affiliated robotics' clubs.
Milset said in a statement, released on Tuesday, that managers of 34 the robotics clubs discussed with Milset's representatives prospects of implementing the Stem system at the local students' clubs.
Milset has set up special programs for each club, including comprehensive data that can be helpful for development and strategic planning.
These clubs seek to aid Kuwaiti students acquire diverse scientific skills to serve the major goal, creating a generation capable of masterminding manufacturing and technological creativity.
Stem is a curriculum based on the idea of educating students in four specific disciplines; science, technology, engineering and mathematics, in an interdisciplinary and applied approach. Rather than teach the four disciplines as separate and discrete subjects, Stem integrates them into a cohesive learning paradigm based on real-world applications.
The United States has historically been a leader in this field. The US Administration had announced the 2009 "Educate to Innovate" campaign to motivate and inspire students to excel in Stem subjects.
Milset was created during 1987, and later various regional offices were established.
It supports its member states and organisations to engage youth in science and technology through motivation, cooperation and networking. It is also an official partner of UNESCO.
Kuwait was chosen to host headquarters of Milset Asia office, the representative of Milset in Asia which is the biggest of all continents, with the largest population.
