Facebook was created in a dorm of Harvard University by some students to help build connectivity in the campus. Later, with the same goal in mind, one man with his team was able to attach over 2 billion people to his idea today. But Facebook doesn’t want to limit itself to just another successful business model. Instead the ever-expanding Black Hole of the Internet wants you to be aware, learn and generate cognitive curiosity towards computer science.
PowerTech & Powertechmation: Facebook has launched its learning initiative in the form of Facebook TechPrep, which will help the students and parents to develop a strong computer cognizance.
In order to create an inclusive culture, Facebook wants to connect the maximum number of people with the technology and break the walls of ignorance. For that purpose, Facebook has announced to provide free Internet from space as well, starting from Africa.
Facebook, is thus offering its new initiative Facebook Tech Prep which will help to quench the curiosity of the students, expose parents and guardians to the computer science and create an environment of computer learning in the under represented groups by providing resources to all these people.
The resource hub, Facebook Tech Prep will curate to the users the solutions to their requirements as per the individual skills such as the age of the learner, skill level and what kind of education they are interested in.
TechPrep is quite an appreciable effort on the part of Facebook as more and more students and parents in the developing countries would get an opportunity to learn and prepare themselves for the competition awaiting.
