As coding education has become a requirement at school, interest in software (SW) coding education is on the rise. However, many individuals find it challenging due to the need to grasp programming languages and logically combine various commands. In response, the approach of "Physical Computing," which allows the confirmation of how physical devices operate through coding tools, is gaining attention.
Blue Communication, led by CEO Jung Hee-yong, has simplified the complex settings of physical computing and developed educational tools in the form of cars and robots that students enjoy. These educational tools can connect to Wi-Fi and can be used to create Internet of Things (IoT) devices or controlled via smartphones.
CEO Jung Hee-yong stated, "It all started with educating my own children. I pondered how we could make SW coding learning more engaging." He began introducing tools shaped like robots and cars, showcasing the various technologies they contain.
CEO Jung continued, "When children code and see their creations make robots walk, dance, or escape mazes, they experience a sense of accomplishment. Through this process, we have created a service that sparks children's interest and encourages them to apply SW coding in various ways."
He further explained, "To develop truly useful tools and educational materials, we have spent three years in diverse development efforts and have educated thousands of students, receiving feedback. Our educational program incorporates ideas and functionalities created by the students themselves." It's all about ensuring that students can't help but feel emersed into it.
Through CJ Group's "Product 101," which supports excellent product distribution and overseas expansion, Blue Communication participated in the “KCON 2018 LA Export Consultation” event. They have already signed export contracts with the United States and Indonesia and are preparing for exports to Vietnam and China.
Meanwhile, domestically, they initiated a reward-based crowdfunding campaign for the robot educational tool AsomeBot through Wadiz, the crowdfunding (a method of receiving products in return for investment) platform.
CEO Jung expressed his determination, stating, "Through our educational tools and a curriculum of 60 sessions developed to enhance creativity and logical thinking, we are committed to enabling all children to learn coding more easily and apply it effectively." (Posted on November 15, 2018)
