TechJOYnT and TheDiv Partner to Promote Innovative Robotic Ideas in Young Children

TechJOYnT and The Div have come together to promote educational programmes that encourages science and technology skills in children between ages six and fourteen.

The curriculum proposed by TechJOYnT focuses on traditional science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education. The programs offered by the company encourage participation from families, students and mentors in engineering and entrepreneurship aspects to work on hands-on robotic projects.

TechJOYnT organises regular community events in the name of iNNOVATE FORWARD and iKIDS at local libraries for introducing STEM concepts via robotics. Local organisations like the DIV and Nowsoft have come forward in support of such events. These organisations recognise the importance of inculcating STEM education at early stages of a child life. An event that particularly focuseses on robotics curriculum is being organised together by TechJOYnT and the Div for children between nine and fourteen years of age from 7 November at the Div campus. Children who are in the age group of five to eight years could also participate in a motorised mechanisms camp which will be held on Sundays. There is a grand event being organised by TechJOYnT on 24 October, which is aimed at being a family fun event that fosters innovation in young children. Activities such as robot building and programming will be organised at the event.
