Why have reduced class sizes and increased per-pupil expenditures (花销)not 36 higher academic achievement levels? Why is the mental health of today’s kids so poor when with that of children in the 1960s and before?

Parents who manage a child’s social life interfere with the of good social skills. Parents who manage a child’s after-school activities grow kids who don’t know how to their own free time. Parents who get involved in their kids, with peers grow kids who don’t know how to avoid much less trouble.

These kids have anxieties and fears of all sorts and don’t want to leave their . And their parents, when the time comes, don’t know how to being parents. You can imagine what will become of their fu ture.

This method, called OASIS, is designed a way to help manage space debris(碎片), which operating satellites.

“One solution to this problem is a robot that can gather pieces of space debris and store them in orbit,” he says. “These pieces could be to new satellites later, thus the costs and launch weights of new satellites.” However, satellite identification technology would be needed for this solution, and that’s what Lochie is working on. “I hope this method would be put into practice in the near future, in the next 10 years,” he says.

Lochie has made the of the Young Innovators category of the Australian Innovation Challenge Awards with his OASIS. This category is open to students aged 21 years or and carries a $ 5,000 prize. If he won, he would use the money to help fund research into OASIS. “My plan for using the money would be to try to use materials which could stand up to the environment of space,” he says.

He said his software design and development teacher at Canberra Grammar School him, too. “He taught me valuable project management and skills which I applied to OASIS.”

Lochie has been attending Canberra Grammar School and will soon exams for admission to universities. He his time between schoolwork, his personal projects such as OASIS and the development of apps, rock climbing, and playing classical violin.
