I once met a young
man at the Engineering Department of Kuala Lumpa University late last
year who narrated to me how he managed to qualify for his engineering
course from his humble background back at the Afghanistan mountainous
village where no one really knew what engineering really was. The
budding engineering scholar at the Kuala Lumpa University of Science
and Technology was called Abdi Hassan. I grew empathetic for him for
quite some time then it occurred to me that there are several other
stories similar to his whereby brilliant students of his caliber
excel from deep within the village to become the best academicians in
the world.
This particular
story left me with a lot of awe more so learning that intelligence is
wholly pegged on one’s social and economic background but it is an
inherent talent peculiar to an individual exhibiting it. If special
attention is not paid to the identification and subsequent tapping of
talents of this sort then it would not be possible to make good on
them. Indeed educationist must treat this with all the urgency that
befits it.
All
the academicians and career experts must come to the realization that
there are brilliant students out in the remote regions of the world
and that most of those brains are just left to waste away due to lack
of proper educational and talent assessment programs. Although many
educationists often claim that it would be possible to recognize
exceptional gifted and talented individuals at earlier stages, giving
of electrical engineering essay
to students by the firms providing writing services as a means of
assessment would yield many dividends in the selection of such
exemplary brains.
