Coding: An essential skill for the future

By VARINDIA - 2021-06-02

The Idea: Having led and scaled tech and products for Edtech startups, I gained insights into the Edtech domain and witnessed the difference education can make. However, I felt that there were very few avenues for school students to learn tangible skills that can help them become innovators and changemakers.

When we started conceptualizing Tekie, our sole focus was on learning outcomes. We experimented with lots of teaching formats to make learning a movie like experience. From there on, we started our R&D and used the art of storytelling that made learning fun while adding real skills.

Innovations & Services: We have built the world’s first animated series on coding that introduces coding concepts to students in an engaging way. If you navigate through our student community, you can see that kids are writing actual code like professionals and not restricting themselves to block based programmes.

We’ve created a first-of-its-kind curriculum, an immersive pedagogy where students learn through visual content, gamified journeys and DIY projects. This keeps the students engaged and makes learning an enjoyable experience. Each class is an episodic journey - television-quality animated video, instruction period, coding activities, and other intuitive learning methods.

Plans for 2021-22: Our focus right now is to partner with schools to provide a robust coding infrastructure to them. Coding is an essential skill for the future and has been introduced in the school curriculum under NEP2020 as a 21st-century skill. We aim to ensure high-quality coding education is available to every school kid in the country.
