Pandor: SA to invest in scientists, innovators
According to SAinfo, science and technology minister Naledi Pandor has encouraged learners who won the Square Kilometre Array (SKA)-MeerKat Schools Competition to study maths and science, saying South Africa needs more people with these skills.
Learners from Grades 4 to 11 from various schools throughout the country were given an opportunity to enter the SKA-MeerKat competition, where they had to answer a multiple choice questionnaire based on the SKA project. The aim of the competition was to increase awareness of one of the most exciting engineering and research projects ever undertaken, reports SAinfo.
