About JAMBOTTECH
JAMBOTTECH’s goals can be sumarised as follows:
Make technology learning for children
Clear and simple
Fun
Practical and useful
JAMBOTTECH takes a big picture or ‘application first’ approach to learning. In the book ‘Jambot’s Guide to Technology’, Jambot a smart, fun AI robot is used to explain all the core technologies needed to design, power and maintain a clever AI robot. By understanding how Jambot works, it clearly explains how these core technologies work together.
A second book, entitled ‘Jambot's Great Adventures’, is in the early stages of writing. This book will be targeted at children aged 6 and above. It’s aim will be to provide the perfect introduction to technology for young children.
Together with the Jambot books, JAMBOTTECH issues weekly blog posts on technology topics for children.
The world needs great problem solvers. Technology can be a useful tool to help solve problems. Providing easy to consume content and increasing technology awareness for our children is a great first step in creating the problem solvers of tomorrow.
