Why Expose Children to Technology?

Why Expose Children to Technology?

• JULY 10, 2020

Technology has long left old-world industries in the dust. Typewriters, books and televisions have made way for high-tech laptops, e-readers and smartphones. The once niche advancements in AI and robotics have made inroads into our lives and living rooms, which goes to show how increasingly influential technology is in our day-to-day.

The children of today are well into a technology-first age– it only makes sense that their education doesn’t fail them with old systems.

Out With The Old, In With The New

Many education systems around the world have been designed for societies, industries and careers of the past. While the focus today continues to be trained on upskilling between jobs, transformative change can only happen if the world invests in reforming the education system from the get-go.

Introducing technology doesn’t mean just digitising old practices and calling it a day. It requires the introduction of technology-first courses into curriculums as well as the development of skills in engaging, interactive ways.

Playing with Technology

Technology is one of the most powerful tools we have to prepare today’s children for their future. Devising engaging, interactive and experiential learning environments creates a more enriching learning experience for students– one that will thoroughly prepare them for their future, not ours.

Modo Edulabs envisions a world where our children are digitally savvy and technologically literate. We prepare kids for the 21st century century through our innovative online courses and custom-designed products.
