COMPONENTS OF ARTEC INNOVATOR ACADEMY

Artec Block is the world's first block/brick for learning and/or playing that can be connected freely from any direction, either vertically, horizontally or even diagonally. Artec Block has won numerous awards, including; Creative Child Awards, Dr. Toy's Awards, Good Toy Awards, and Golden Pin Design Awards.

Artec Blocks broaden children creative mind. While repeatedly building and rebuilding the block models, children creativity and inspiration are stimulated and nurtured to be amazingly limitless almost in all aspects, such as Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, Math, etc.

ARTEC Blocks

ARTEC Robo

Artec Robo is a combination of creative freedom from Artec Block, with easy and simple "drag and drop" programming from Studuino. Studuino is a complete programming package for the modern classroom, consist of circuit boards that specially designed to make robots and various sensors such as infrared, LED, accelerometer, etc.

Studuino is also designed to teach programming, simple and easy to use, and has an international standard and outstanding quality as well.

PROGRAM AVAILABLE

Logical Kids Program

1. Developed for children age 4 – 7

2. Applied Learning, We live in a society that is both rich in information and alive with technology. In societies like this, the ability to understand and reproduce information, or combine old and new knowledge is a cornerstone of effective learning. The Artec Logical Kids Program helps to nurture a child's mental flexibility and logical ability while they have fun playing games and puzzles!

3. A Great Tool for Learning Math Basics, Cube blocks are great tool to understand the concept of numbers, weight, mass, and other mathematic fundamentals.

4. Nurture Concentration. Relying strictly on written materials in the classroom can make it difficult for student to focus on the subject at hand. It's been proven that the largely non-visual abstract ideas and logic dealt with in mathematics can be taught much more effectively with the use of physical study aids.

5. Unlike the memorization-style education of the 20th century, the 21st century-style education focuses on the development of the capacity to think and apply one’s knowledge.

6. Artec Co., Ltd. is proud to introduce our most recent solution to help young children to develop such skills. Consists of 11 chapters. Each chapter consists of 4 fifty-minute lessons. And each lesson has a total of 10 pages filled with competitive challenges and exercises.

MAIN POINT

This allows utilizing classroom time to the maximum, not spending hours trying to assemble a mechanism. Our circuit board, the Studuino, is a modified version of Arduino that not only allows the absolute beginners to start building their robots right away using a unique Plug and Play system easily, but also provides for compatibility with Arduino and any Arduino-compatible parts available on the market, eliminating all possible barriers to expansion and creativity. Our solutions are already being utilized in hundreds of schools in over twenty countries all over the world (Australia, UK, USA, Spain, Hungary, Singapore, South Korea, Japan and many others).

1. Developed for children age 8+.

2. The perfect solution for teaching robotic and programming.

3. Using easy-to-use systems and modules. Build robots with complex joints easily.

4. Artec Blocks' unique shape lets you design a robot the way that YOU want to.

5. Studuino software based on Scratch programming language, worldwide open source program originally developed by the MIT Media Lab. So, after children learning AIA Robot Programming School, they can expand their programming skill and their creativity through interactive stories, games, and animations — and share your creations with others in the online community. It also eliminating all possible barriers to expansion and creativity

MAIN POINT

6. Learn the hidden logic and basics of the world's machines and robots.

7. Comprehensive and in-depth guide and curriculum. Up to 3 years curriculum consisting of 8 levels with 40 90-minute lesson in total (and many more to come).

8. Naturally nurture logical thinking while you program!

9. At Artec, we understand the importance of making education relevant to the real world. This is why our curricula concentrates on learning and understanding the application of coding and programming in everyday life.

10. The curriculum includes detailed guidelines for teachers and is also equipped with complete manuals for students.

Step by step, complete, comprehensive, and in-depth world class curriculum.

Relevant to real-life every day example; "Programming the Traffic Light".

Artec Innovator Academy: Robot Programming School is the most recent and advanced programming and robotics solution for primary and secondary school and other. This solution was developed with the specific goals of introducing and nurturing understanding of programming, robotics and engineering. Our solution is built around Artec’s very own and patented, Artec Blocks a unique building module system that allows creating complex models ten times faster than any systems out there.
