On Tuesday, Tyner Academy’s students had the chance to demonstrate their innovative creations that were developed using machine learning technology. As part of the six-week-long World Quantum Day observance, 12 students from the EPB Future Ready Institute of Technology and Networking at Tyner Academy presented their “Friendship Detectors.”
EPB’s J. Ed Marston expressed that their organization has been a sponsor and participant in Tyner Academy’s curriculum. Their primary goal is to bridge the gap between technological advancements that can contribute positively to Chattanooga’s economy and ensuring that there are skilled workers available to take on these jobs. Marston emphasized the importance of nurturing individuals of all ages with necessary technological skills for future job opportunities in the quantum industry.
Marston highlighted that it is crucial for children to develop essential technology skills to prepare them for jobs in this rapidly evolving industry. Through educational opportunities like the one held at Tyner Academy, students can apply their knowledge of machine learning and other tech-related skills in real-world scenarios. This hands-on experience helps prepare them for future job opportunities in the ever-evolving technology industry.
