What is Steamoji?
Steamoji is a maker academy for kids age 5-15 that complements and enriches children’s school studies by exposing them to new technologies in fabrication, physical computing, engineering, science and digital arts while teaching them soft-skills, such as critical thinking, a growth mindset and entrepreneurship. With these foundational skills, students are then challenged with problems and encouraged to imagine, create, share and then improve their own solutions.
