Don’t know your STEM? Crammer class from leader in the STEM movement

For parents and educators, it's really important to keep up to date with what children are being taught and the effects on their future career paths. The term ‘STEM’ is currently very popular in education circles – but what does it mean? Where is it from? How does it affect children’s education and careers?

In this podcast, the inventor of Simbrix, Assim gets a valuable insight into STEM from Andrew B. Raupp, the CEO and founder of the thought leader and educational training company STEM.org. This is a ‘must listen’ podcast for parents, educators and suppliers to the education industry.

Simbrix Talk STEM With Andrew Raupp

We asked the question about whether Simbrix is better than Lego, and in this podcast, we discuss with Sean Brass, a teacher from Neil M. Ross elementary school about how he transformed Simbrix pixel art beads and gave them an educational purpose than just a ‘creative puzzle’. As the ‘thought leader’ of innovation and education of his district in Alberta, he always wants the best for his students. In this interview, we get to meet Sean and find out how education has become more of a passion to him, than just a career choice.

In this podcast, I came back to Forest Town Primary School to discover what teachers and most importantly what the children think of Simbrix. I want to find out how students are using Simbrix in their day-to-day learning and the benefits teachers have seen with children at all levels of learning.  

We find out that Simbrix isn't just a toy, it’s a building block for children to learn and explore their inner creativeness. Visiting Forest Town Primary School I had the pleasure to talk with the students who use Simbrix as learning tools. 

I learn how the school has employed using Simbrix to grow and develop students learning and the other benefits for special needs children to relax and maintain focus in lessons.

Our goal within this podcast is to see what all this excitement is about. We want to understand what it is that everyone seems to be loving! The podcast mainly focuses on L.O.L dolls and also mentions toys such as Kinder egg, where the enjoyment appears to lie in the unwrapping and reveal of the toy.

In this podcast, I discuss the importance of breaking your business model. This needs to be done before others are able to, or you risk the potential crushing of dreams; leaving you searching for a way forward.

Business Model

In this podcast we look at how beneficial and positive a ‘no’ can be if we change our mindset to believe that every step of this long process for entrepreneurs, like myself, can be useful in helping us to develop our skills. I discuss how the ‘no’ can prepare us for the ‘yes’ if we take on board the feedback we receive and take the time to evaluate our product.

Power Of No

This podcast is about reflecting on the role of both the ‘creative’ and the ‘tech’ entrepreneur. It was fascinating to note both their differences and their similarities and see how by utilising each other’s different skills they can create a relationship as beneficial as symbiotic mutualism which pushes them to excel in every aspect of their work.

Creative Vs Tech

Behind the scenes interviews at the Cultural and Creative Industry Expo in China.
 
I recently took a trip to China in order to attend a toy exhibition. It was a 5-day event and so I took this time to interview attendees. Many were locals and many were from the town of Nottingham. It was great to get other people’s views on the event as well as their opinions on Simbrix. Will it be a success in China?
