As an aspiring physician on the pre-med track (a microbiology and immunology major), I believe that creating a strong academic foundation, especially in math and science, is essential for future career and academic success. Growing up in Miami’s more improvised area, Liberty City, quality learning materials were scarce. Even when there were resources for active learning, most students were completely unaware of their existence or lacked the training to make effective use of the learning materials. The end result would usually be that students lacked the essential study skills they need to make use of all the educational resources when they hit college, myself included. Situations like these emphasize that the science of learning (i.e., learning how to learn) is a valuable skill to have early on. Being able to get the most of the education offered, despite the lack of resources makes a world of difference when it comes to having a solid foundation and head start in education.
