Education is experiencing an exciting transformation, and
WordPress in Education Conference 2026 is leading the
way by empowering educators, students, developers,

open-source technology for meaningful change in communities,
African nations and across the African Continent.

With the inspiring theme, “Using Technology to Serve and
Transform Society,” the conference highlights how digital
innovation can strengthen learning, expand access to
knowledge, and build more connected communities.
WordPress has become much more than a website platform.
It is an educational ecosystem that encourages creativity,
collaboration, communication, and lifelong learning. Through
open-source technology, educators can create engaging
digital classrooms, student portfolios, blogs, learning hubs,
and community-driven projects that prepare learners for an
increasingly digital future. These tools provide opportunities
for students to become creators of knowledge instead of
simply consumers of information.

The 2026 conference will showcase how WordPress supports
transformational learning by encouraging innovation,
problem-solving, and global collaboration. Participants will
discover practical strategies to integrate technology into
classrooms while fostering digital citizenship, accessibility,
and inclusive learning environments that benefit schools
and communities alike. Educator and CEO Jackson supports
global educational WordPress events and is honored and
blessed to be able to contribute.

My Quest To Teach is honored to serve as a Sponsor
and Media Partner and contributing to this amazing and
transformative event that happened Friday, August 7, 2026.
Supporting educators and learners aligns with our mission
of empowering youth, teens, and young adults through
STEAM Education, Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality,
Digital Storytelling, and WordPress technologies.

As educators, innovators, and technology leaders gather
to share ideas and inspire one another, WordPress in
Education 2026 will demonstrate that when technology
is used with purpose and service, it becomes a powerful
force for transforming education, strengthening communities,
and creating opportunities for generations to come across
the continent building Africa into a SuperPower of “soil and
soul.”

How Can STEAM Education Build the Space Industry Across Africa

How Can STEAM Education Build the Space Industry Across Africa
by William Jackson, MAT and former NASA Educator and Sponsor
of WordCamp Conferences across Africa

STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and
Mathematics) education is an interdisciplinary approach
to learning that emphasizes the integration of these
subject areas in order to foster innovation and creativity.
The use of STEAM education can play a critical role in
building the Space industry across Africa in several ways
not thought of before.

Developing a Skilled Workforce: STEAM Education can
help develop a skilled workforce with the necessary
knowledge and skills to work in the Space Industry.
Through STEAM Education, students can gain knowledge
in various areas such as physics, mathematics, computer
science, the arts and engineering, which are all critical to
space exploration and development.

Fostering Innovation: STEAM Education can also foster
innovation and creativity, which are essential in the Space
Industry. By encouraging students to think critically and
solve complex problems, they can develop innovative
solutions to the challenges facing the Space Industry.

Encouraging Entrepreneurship: STEAM Education can
encourage entrepreneurship in the Space Industry. By
providing students with the necessary skills and knowledge
to start their own businesses, they can contribute to grow
in the Space Industry across Africa.

Promoting Collaboration: STEAM Education promotes
collaboration among students, which is essential in the
Space Industry. Through collaboration, students can
work together to develop innovative solutions to the
challenges facing the Space Industry.

Creating Awareness: STEAM Education can also create
awareness about the importance of the Space Industry
in Africa. By educating students about the benefits of
space exploration and development, they can become
advocates for the industry, which can help attract
more funding and investment.

The use of STEAM Education can play a critical role in
building the Space Industry across Africa by developing
a skilled workforce, fostering innovation and creativity,
encouraging entrepreneurship, promoting collaboration,
and creating awareness.

By investing in STEAM Education, African countries can
