With that said parents and teachers are seeking new ways to keep minds active and inspired while outside the classroom. General Motors (GM), the parent company to Chevrolet that sells the Trailblazer and Colorado in the Philippines, wants to lend a helping hand with the situation by releasing “Electrifying Engineering,” a free educational video series on Youtube. The new series was designed by the American company to foster ingenuity and through hands-on activities, while also educating kids about electric vehicle technology.
