We are so proud of students like Eva and can't wait to see what's next for her!
At Ohio Connections Academy, Eva found a flexible and engaging learning environment that allowed her to pursue her interests on earth and in space. Her favorite class, web design, ignited her passion for tech, and now she's interning at NASA Glenn Research Center, working on #AI and Machine Learning projects. She credits her supportive teachers for helping her navigate difficult lessons and offering invaluable college advice. In April, she even returned to Ohio Connections Academy as a guest speaker to demo her work with AI, how it's shaping the world of Space Exploration and #career opportunities. Eva’s story is a shining example of how Connections Academy by Pearson prepares students for academic and professional success 🚀 #StudentSuccess #OnlineLearning #EarlyCareer
