Branded as SkriLab, Skriware’s “educational laboratory” comes with curriculum materials that focus on 3D printers and modeling programs, educational robots, engineering kits, and CAD and programming tools. Teachers also get access to a training platform, Skriware Academy, with over 20 e-courses that fit up to nine school subjects.
Skriware’s website says the tools essentially turn a standard classroom into a 3D printing and robotics lab, with the goal of inspiring students to pursue further education and careers in computer science and other technical fields.
Skriware’s announcement about entering the U.S. market comes on the heels of receiving the ISTE Seal of Alignment, which essentially says the company promotes critical technology skills, supports the appropriate use of tech, advances the teaching of technology and generally meets ISTE’s standards. The company’s news release said SkriLab has already been used in over 2,500 primary schools in Poland, and Skriware Chief Executive Officer Karol Górnowicz said in a public statement that he hopes the product can be as useful in the U.S.
