Great news for our many students who have created technology to assist #Alzheimers patients and caretakers. Also, a wonderful story of a mother-daughter duo who could change how we see this disease forever. @Paula_Piccard

We've spent the last 2 days at @CanConnectEd. We've met SO many inspiring educators and learned so much about how to help close the gender gap in tech in Canada. We also met these change makers who created @genconnect, which placed in Canada's top 10 @technovation! #CanConnectEd

GenConnect is an app designed to make it easier for seniors to communicate with their grandchildren, in a way that will appeal to both of them. Brain-stimulating games and text messaging are used in the app to make communicating easy and to prevent isolation and dementia.
