Overview
A global leader in children’s technology education
programs, COMPUTER EXPLORERS is the perfect franchise for people who believe
technology education is an important part of preparing children for the
future.
COMPUTERTOTS is an early childhood education program conducted at childcare centers and preschools for children ages three to five. Their core purpose is to help build academic readiness skills in language arts, math, science, art and music using technology. They also introduce children to problem-solving and computer operations through educator-designed lesson plans and hands-on activities.
COMPUTER EXPLORERS provides educational technology solutions in private and public schools for students age six and older.
School administrators around the country are concerned about their studentsÍ performance on standardized tests. Research has shown that the more we use information, the better we retain it; COMPUTER EXPLORERS integrates core curriculum content as the basis for its project-based learning of technology skills.
As an example, if 4th grade students are studying the American Revolution in social studies, and are learning how to do multimedia presentations in the computer lab, COMPUTER EXPLORERS students would use information about the revolution as the content of their slide shows. Project content could include maps of the thirteen colonies, information about the author of the Declaration of Independence, graphs of cash crops, a recipe for cornbread, and drawings of musketsƒ with the slides enhanced by fife and drum music playing in the background!
COMPUTER EXPLORERS teachers meet regularly with classroom teachers to develop lesson plans in science, language arts, mathematics and social studies. We challenge our students to create projects that make use of multiple technology skills including:
