MyMachine
Children and students learn to be confident with their own ideas and how to bring them to life.
MyMachine is a unique, multi-award-winning, design-thinking methodology, running in 1 school year and consisting of 3 steps:
1. Children in Primary Classrooms invent their “dream machine”. Anything goes, as long as they really, really want it.
2. Together with University Students, they translate the Idea into a Concept.
3. Together with Technical Secondary/Vocational Students, they build a Working Prototype. And this happens with many schools at the same time.
Students learn that you can bring any idea to life; that you can do this by collaborating, respecting each other’s talents and by being persistent and resilient.
More than ever before, our world needs new answers. And these come from people who are confident to use their imagination, to think outside of silos, and know how to bring their ideas to life.
We bring this to the education system to show students and educators that creativity, fueled with curiosity, can go beyond the status quo, and push the boundaries of knowledge.
