About Zach Watson
In 10 years since graduating, I\'ve developed software, worked with 5 schools teaching 6th grade level math to Geometry and various sciences, and now I am working with Quickbase developing our outreach and brand visability talking with folks that are looking to improve their processes. After college, I have observed some reoccurring themes that have shaped my philosophy as an educator. As an engineer, I was hired more because they knew I could teach myself to learn than for my engineering skills, I\'ve found that the professional world is growing increasingly in the favor of young professionals that can think for themselves rather than follow direct and specific reoccurring tasks, because we have computers for much of that now. The challenges I and previous generations faced as a teenagers are changing. Memorization is becoming obsolete with the ubiquitous use of google and instant access to information within the workplace. What we learn today needs to coincide with the use of the tools professionals use. As I continue working on creating content for youth to grow, I find that a growth mindset and willingness and intrinsic motivation to learn is more important than being able to do high level math calculations. Thinking creatively and not being afraid of ambiguous problems is more valuable than quickly answering questions and problems we have answered before. I\'ve created my youtube channel to help youth and peers build self-awareness, around these 21st century skills. I do my best to implement the practices I preach. There is nothing that I love more than seeing youth grow from knowing they \"can\'t\" to looking back and realizing they can cause they did.
