Our Curriculum

Designed by educators to ignite curiosity, build 21st century skills, and inspire real-world connections.

Innovative STEAM Experiences

Using diverse approaches that boost learner engagement, EcoRobotik’s Coaches have guided over 2,500 students in STEAM classes and competitions

1.

Project-based learning

No long lectures or pages of note-taking! In Project-Based Learning (PBL), students actively gain knowledge and skills by working together to solve an authentic, real-world problem.

Project-Based Learning helps students:

Spark curiosity and generate questions

Build teamwork, communication, and other 21st century skills

Reflect and make revisions to solve a challenge

2.

Design thinking

Unlike PBL, Design Thinking asks students to define the real-world problem instead of the instructor. Students move through five non-linear stages where they’ll research, prototype, and test potential solutions while identifying alternative strategies.

Design Thinking helps students:

Adapt and respond to new and difficult challenges

Create innovative solutions with greater confidence

Empathize with the needs of others

3.

Gamification

Know someone who loves video games? Gamification uses elements of game design in the classroom that make learning more fun. Think points, timers, leaderboards, and rewards!

Gamification helps students:

Increase motivation

Improve focus

Retain more of what they learn
