Building The Skills Now For The Future

Crestar Education Group is appointed by LEGO Education, Denmark, to operate exclusively a network of LEGO Education Centers (LEC) in Singapore. The first LEC located at Marine Parade, was launched in November 2004. First of its kind in South East Asia, the Center also houses the latest LEGO® MINDSTORMS® For Schools room, offering LEGO® Robotics activities.

 

 


Recognizing children's natural talent as self-directed learners, LEC creates a learning environment filled with open-ended activities built on choice and diversity. Its education programmes are based on an effective learning process of Connect, Construct, Contemplate and Continue. LEC offers a comprehensive range of programmes for preschoolers to teenagers to use their creativity and natural curiosity through hands-on experiences.

For preschoolers, the LEC programmes cover topics ranging from relating children to their environment, to exploring basic inventions. These programmes will promote creation through play, opening multiple paths to creativity and learning.

School-aged students will explore concepts of machines, mechanics and robotics. The lessons and products are designed and packaged for specific learning targets for maths, science, design and technology. At the LEGO MINDSTORMS For Schools room, school-aged students will explore, build and make their LEGO creations or robots alive. Students will gain an understanding of important scientific and engineering concepts, involving sensing, feedback and control.
