Digital Influx
Unlocking creativity, empathy, & critical thinking through fun games to stimulate emotional learning
Right now, kids are spending more time than ever online, and being digitally native is part of their identity. Through UX Design, they develop soft skills that are super important in the real world as well.
We offer immersive courses for both kids (9-12yrs) and teenagers (13-16yrs), that teach the fundamentals of UX Design and Design Thinking through hands-on projects that are focused on the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
We aim to expand the future of digital education. Our UX for Kids course is a starting block to develop children's interests in tech and design. Our next steps will be to introduce other courses including UI, Product Design and Product Management.
- Learn how to solve problems through applying empathy, creativity, and critical thinking
- Build stronger relationships by understanding the feelings and experiences of others
- Create thought processes around how to express ideas visually (and not just verbally)
