NEW DELHI:
Subjects like science and math have been taught in school since the beginning, but recently there has been a vast difference in the way of learning. Now, students can very well experience the different connotations by ‘doing & learning by themselves’. This is where Science Technology Engineering Math (STEM) education comes into use.
STEM Education’ is relatively a new term in the Indian education sector, which has picked up quite a lot in the last few years. In contrary to the belief that India produces the highest number of scientists & engineers, the growth of STEM education had been slow till few years ago. However, in the last decade or so, with the popping up of many STEM education companies in the country, Indian education system is on the right track for development.
Joining the STEM education bandwagon is SMARTIVITY the global consumer brand in S.T.E.M toys from India working to make a difference through innovative learning using technologies like augmented and Virtual Reality, Robotics, Blended Learning activities and Tangible Play innovations.
Smartivty’s portfolio of in-house designed and patented products are designed to introduce 3 to 14-year old children to core STEM fundamentals through plug & Play. Some of the pioneer yet interesting toys from the stable of the brans are:
Smartivity’s first virtual reality product offering – These are virtual reality experiences designed to complement India’s highest selling and most prescribed Science textbooks written by Lakhmir Singh and Manjit Kaur and published by S Chand Group. As part of VRX, students studying in class 9 and 10 will be able to access virtual reality experiences designed to understand complex concepts in Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
Spell-English, a unique Blended-Learning product, that combines physical play with Computer Vision and Adaptive Learning technologies, has been launched by Smartivity as part of its association with Kidzee, Asia’s largest chain of play-schools. Spell-English is a comprehensive language learning tool, which integrates physical tile-based activity with an app that ensures a fun, playful way of learning English fundamentals.
