TEACHBOX

over 7 years ago by MAYERMAKES

Which problem are you trying to solve?

The quality in science education differs vastly between first and third world countries, but also in between schools in
the same region.

How are you going to solve the problem?

Teachbox is a modular teaching tool system that is used to bring good science education to anyone that has no access to
it and improve the science classes of those who have access to it.

What is the impact of your project?

Teachbox enables communities to share teaching meterials and distributes knowledge funded by richer economies to does in
need.

How can the project be manufactured in the OpenLab?

The enclosure and the individual modules can be made .open source teaching materials can be prototyped (for example
molecular models for chemistry classes)

Describe your project in detail

Please watch this video where I explain everything in
detail.

Teachbox was already selected as one of 25 finalists for
"Element14's Change the world competition", this further assures me of the viability of the project.

Great educational project!
This is a very promising project. What are next improvements you are planning to make?

@Othman
Thanks, next plan is to win this contest ;-) and build a physical prototype, and gather some educaters to
develope proper study materials to fill the box and get a sponsor/distributor to finance the project.

Very interesting! How did you choose the teaching materials? Did you develop the teachbox relying on experiences of
teachers or research & development? I like your open source approach. The donations will be a mandatory part of
buying a teachbox, right?

A great idea ... I suggest that boxes should be divided at different levels of one subject according to topics of
interest to students according to their age group
