ABOUT US
The world is changing rapidly, powered by advanced technologies including Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning and robotics/automation. Many jobs of today will be replaced by new types of jobs that do not even exist yet. Our education system that is tasked to grow the human resources for such a not-so-distant future, however, has barely changed.
With acute realization of such gap in the education system, especially at preschool level, the founding team of KidsEdu has dedicated themselves to bring a different approach to education in Vietnam. KidsEdu aims to equip children at a young age (3-6 years old) with critical thinking skills: creativity, analysis and problem solving, especially the computational thinking skills – the most important skills for them to succeed in the 21st century.
“KidsEdu STEM preschool program” is the first output of the KidsEdu team. KidsEdu STEM program is a structured curriculum to help familiarize preschool children with STEM, specifically with computational thinking. Developed over 2 years by a team of experienced and passionate preschool curriculum designers and educational technology experts, the program has been piloted successfully at a number of preschools in Hanoi, assessed and endorsed for its pedagogical relevance by the Center for Early Childhood Education Research Center, Vietnam National Institute for Educational Sciences (VNIES) in April 2023. In August 2023, the KidsEdu’s STEM curriculum for preschools was approved by STEM.org for the prestigious STEM.org Reviewed™ badge.
