Lego Education, the education division within the Lega Group, showcased multiple education solutions, now available in Arabic, for use in the Middle East education market, at the ongoing GESS 2016.

 

Its education solutions include Lega Education StoryStarter Curriculum; Lego Mindstorms Education EV3 Space Activity Pack and Challenge Set; and Lego Education WeDo 2.0 Software and Curriculum Pack.

 

Steen V Lund, head of EEMEA&SEA at Lego Education, said: “Lego Education is excited to continue investing in Arabic language based solutions for the Middle East as we see this as an important market for us.

 

“The core solutions we currently offer in Arabic are a great way for educators to teach in an inspiring, engaging, and effective way. In partnership with educators for more than 35 years, our educational solutions, which range from humanities to science, enable every student to succeed by encouraging them to become active, collaborative learners, build skills for future challenges, and establish a positive mind-set toward learning. Our announcement at GESS 2016 this week just continues to strengthen hands-on learning globally.”

 

Lego Education also announced this week the availability of Lego Education WeDo 2.0, in Arabic. 

 

WeDo 2.0 is a hands-on, elementary science solution that develops science practices in the classroom through a robot-based learning system. Correlated to standards-based projects, the solution engages and motivates students to solve real-world science problems by working with engineering, technology and coding through the Lego brick, classroom-friendly software and 40+ hours of hands-on projects. 

 

Lego Education WeDo 2.0 strengthens students’ understanding and develops competencies across key science topics including physical sciences, life sciences, earth and space sciences and engineering.

 

The division has a strong presence in the Middle East and works closely with Atlab, a technology based hands-on learning solutions company based in UAE, to help serve the Middle East market. - TradeArabia News Service
