According to Taylor’s University deputy vice-chancellor and chief academic officer Prof Dr Pradeep Nair, this unique ecosystem nurtures students in the three intelligences – intellect, practical wisdom, and craft. A helping hand: Bernard presenting a DuckiePi desktop to a recipient from the B40 community. In an era when online learning has become the norm, especially due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Bernard’s DuckiePi can alleviate the struggles of the B40 community. “The more invested I was in the project, the more I realised that DuckiePi would enhance B40 kids’ online learning experiences and improve digital literacy among the B40 community.”Of course, no brilliant idea is without its fair share of struggles. For Bernard, TMM served as a network which he could use to tap into the knowledge and expertise of mentors, and other tech and computing students.
