Robotics, the Arts and Storytelling: Nurturing Future-Ready Learners is Back!
A 5-Day Camp for Youth
A Think x Rainbow Youth Wellbeing Champion Initiative
After a very successful inaugural pilot run in November 2023, we are back with our second run! In this multidisciplinary collaboration between experts across diverse fields, we present a unique 5-Day Camp for Youth recommended for ages 10-15 - on Robotics, the Arts and Storytelling: Nurturing Future-Ready Learners.
This Think x Rainbow Youth Wellbeing Champion initiative is part of our audacious vision to make education relevant for the Fifth Industrial Revolution—one that is powered by AI, and where humans and AI will co-exist and collaborate side-by-side in the Future World of Work.
We are launching this program to nurture conscious creativity, critical thinking, learning by doing, heart-centered value-based decision-making, self-awareness and socio-emotional wellbeing—by combining robotics building, mindfulness, self-expression via the arts, entrepreneurship, plus the art of storytelling—to better prepare our kids to meet this New Future.
This 5-day camp is anchored in the narrative of a sensory-deprived group—the world of the blind. Participants are guided throughout by experienced educators, behavioural therapists, developmental psychologists and certified counsellors as well as successful entrepreneurs who are emotionally attuned to the participants’ needs so they are better able to connect with their creativity, overcome any emotional barriers, build confidence, and learn more effectively. They will also get to meet real people who are blind and learn from their challenges and get feedback on their ideas. The outcome will be real-world solutions to enhance the lives of the blind community using robotics, and a story around the fact that “we’re in this together”, and that no matter who we are or our personal circumstances, each of us possesses an innate superpower waiting to be uncovered and harnessed for good. These are all requisites for become more future-ready.
Throughout the 5 days there will be activities in mindfulness, self-awareness and emotional catharsis, which will deepen the participants’ holistic learning journey and offer a deeper translation of these learnings as creative outcomes through robotics and storytelling. Get ready for an unforgettable experience along with a prototype to take home: a blind-friendly electronic gadget, and a compelling story to share.
“Education is about educating the mind - the whole mind - in young people.
The whole mind comprises left brain + right brain + heart.
We begin by educating the heart - inculcating values & virtues.
Skills to master: compassion, courage, curiosity, commitment and calm - how to be good, empathetic human beings.
Teach kids the laws of harvest - we reap what we sow - and the laws of cause and consequences; teach them how to fish.
Teach them how to learn; make learning fun and joyful (as it should be).
Bringing Silicon Valley / the world into the classroom (create opportunities
for doing, experimentations, failures and learnings).
Teachers / parents are igniters of the sparks inside our kids.”
- Yen-Lu Chow, Program Director
