This article is part of The EdSurge Podcast. Today, there are plenty of middle and high school students who have developed solutions to major economic and social challenges, ranging from health care and transportation to agriculture and the environment. This podcast guest is someone who works with these students every day, helping each of them identify a problem and refine a solution - an invention. Leigh Estabrooks has seen students in New York City invent a tool that will prevent fires from igniting on the city's subway tracks and students in North Carolina create a system that helps farmers identify disabilities in their livestock. She is the invention education officer at the Lemelson-MIT program, which encourages young people to create and invent. (Published Aug. 13, 2019)
