Aktiv Labor
An interactive toolkit for schoolchildren to learn about traffic safety
How does it work?
Aktiv Labor combines modern technologies with familiar gestures, creating an interactive toolkit for schoolchildren to learn about traffic safety. It aims to improve the learning experience for primary school children through neo-analog tools, equipping them at a key age when their sensory perceptions are improving and they are gaining increasing independence. Aktiv Labor’s three independent neo-analog tools can be used to teach various skills, and can be adapted to the needs of different age groups
Why is it needed?
Teaching methods for road safety are outdated: the traffic landscape is constantly evolving, and there is no standardised and updated syllabus for teaching kids about safety. If there is any teaching material available, it is usually uninspired. Despite recent research showing that children often learn better through play, and holistic approaches that engage their senses, kids are still expected to memorise rules from photocopied worksheets. In an age of smart technologies, we can do better than this. Children growing up now deserve an interactive traffic education that equips them for the smart city of tomorrow
How does it improve life?
Aktiv Labor is an interactive toolkit for schoolchildren to learn about traffic safety in an inspiring and fun way, equipping them with the skills required for them to be smart citizens of tomorrow. It aims to improve the learning experience for primary school children, equipping them at a key age when their sensory perceptions are improving and they are gaining increasing independence.
