What we do
Codomo is an education technology startup built on the principles of building connections between students, giving room for creative freedom and expression, providing real-world exposure and catalysing real-world impact through design innovation. We achieve this through our workshops and products. Our first product is Potato Pirates - a card game that teaches programming concepts. Potato Pirates was launched on Kickstarter in September 2017 and has gone on to become the most backed project on Kickstarter from Singapore, raising over $250,000 with over 5000 backers.
Why we do
65% of students in primary schools today will end up working jobs that don't even exist. In the next 15 years almost 50% of jobs worldwide will become obsolete. We're providing a 21st century experience where learners get to prepare for life, not standardised tests. As technology progresses the need for problem solving skills is becoming more prevalent. We give learners creative freedom to choose what they wish to learn, when and where they wish to learn it. Ultimately, our vision is to achieve this by bridging online and offline learning. Education becomes a bad memory to most people and with the influx of digital media, most of us are not motivated or incentivised to continue learning. Codomo is a part of movement promoting lifelong learning by getting learners excited about learning something new everyday.
How we do
Codomo works with educational institutes and government bodies to conduct training programmes in 21st century skills such as coding, robotics, 3D printing and design. Codomo is shifting its focus to developing products which inculcate, in addition to tech literacy, problem solving through design thinking. As the world ascends with complexity, design thinking is a skill highly sought after in many modern industries along with creative and critical thinking. It takes more than just a great academic qualification to solve problems of the future.
