Technology Will Save Us

It's been a busy week at KYA HQ! We've been getting out into the community for a piece of work called Technology Will Save Us.

We visited a local primary school here in Knowsley to chat to some of the young people about their ideas around technology. We had a fantastic response and we came back with hundreds of post-it notes (they love those!) and sheets and sheets of flip-chart.
We are so lucky to have the opportunity to work with such enthusiastic young people who are always happy to have us visit their school to carry out our sessions. Not to mention the fact that they always remember our names!

We asked the young people questions such as:

  • What is your idea of technology?
  • What is your favourite piece of technology?
  • How often do you use technology?
  • If you could invent a piece of technology, what would it be?
  • Do you enjoy creative things such as Lego, Play-Doh or Scalextric?

We had a big task on our hands when it came to compiling the data and putting it into the report, but we enjoyed reading the responses and ideas of such creative minded young people.

We hope to be able to update you soon on what's going on at KYA HQ.

Until next time!
