The Value Of Low Tech
100We live in a high tech world so when we think of technology we often think of tablets or smartphones. But when it comes to technology there is both low tech and high tech. Low tech (or simple technology) is all around us. The pencil or the paint brush, the fork or the wheel, are all examples of invaluable low tech tools.
Low tech has an important place in STEAM education and Makedo is the perfect low tech tool for every learning or maker space. Educators are enthusiastic about Makedo tools because they are hands-on, inexpensive, reusable and simple to use. Also Makedo construction only requires one material – cardboard!
This is great for children and it’s also great for adults. You don’t need to do a course on 3D printing, coding, robotics or augmented reality to get started with Makedo. Compared with some high tech resources, Makedo's tools are easy for educators and parents to support the fun and learning of making.
Most importantly, low tech is high fun. So, if you’re looking for a much needed break from digital education or online learning try low tech fun with Makedo. Embrace the benefits of low tech with a cardboard challenge for the perfect opportunity to provide children with the satisfying mastery of using tools, hands-on making, STEAM learning.
