  • Customizable Course Building and Easy Translation
  • Literacy E-Learning For Children Globally
  • Online & Offline – All For FREE

Features

Quality Content

Our education team and global contributors publish high-quality literacy content that makes learning fun and easy and yields real learning results – regardless of where one lives or what their socioeconomic background may be.

Localization

In many parts of the world, untrained teachers lack the resources to teach and meaningfully engage children. Blue Brick School’s online portal allows anyone to easily edit, translate, or localize activities or eBooks so that children can learn with representation of characters and visuals that reflect their local language and culture.

Activity & Book Creator

With our flexible and innovative software, anyone can build activities and books to customize their current literacy curriculum for free. Partner schools can create their own classes, teachers, and students to start playing their course.

Translation

40% of children globally are taught in a language they do not understand. This is why Blue Brick School has created easy tools for text and voiceover translation, enabling learning for children of all language backgrounds, including minorities and indigenous people.

The Global Reality

750 million
people are illiterate globally
387 million
primary age children are unable to read proficiently
263 million

Moreover, hundreds of millions of children attend schools in classrooms that are under-resourced with educators that lack proper training. This translates to a chronic cycle of poverty and missed opportunities to explore one’s full potential.

We believe that ALL children should have access to quality education.

Blue Brick School Future: we could be one of the most cost-effective solutions to help solve the global learning crisis. Our main goal to solve this is to provide literacy e-learning for children who are the hardest to reach in rural areas – those who lack access to technology, Internet, and electricity. We will source low-cost, energy-efficient hardware so students can access content offline using tablets powered by renewable energy.

By partnering with Governments and organizations to distribute locally relevant Blue Brick School packages to as many schools as possible worldwide, we believe Blue Brick School has the potential to change the landscape of education globally

FAQ

Why Literacy and Why A Focus On Early Childhood Education?

We are initially focused on the development of literacy content. Addressing these skills in a child’s early development jumpstarts gains in other areas of academic achievement and has also been linked to contributing to economic growth, improving long-term health, and increasing self-esteem, confidence and empowerment.

Why E-Learning and Activities?

E-learning is an effective, innovative way to engage a child and improve knowledge retention. We provide a baseline of activities that are designed to be customized by educators globally to meet individual teaching needs.

Why Open Source?

The e-learning market for underprivileged children often lacks quality content and tends to exclude non-English speakers. We believe an open-source platform can:

  • Fuel collaboration
  • Host varied curricula for different learning styles
  • Provide easy access to high-quality education for children worldwide
How Will The Hardware Package Work?

We would distribute our platform through our “Blue Brick School packages”, which include 10-20 student tablets, headphones, one teacher laptop that acts as a server and synchronizes to student tablets, and a solar charging station. While offline, students can access Blue Brick School activities and books, and the teacher can use a dashboard to monitor their progress. The laptop is the only device requiring occasional internet access. Users can download new material from the Blue Brick School website and upload student progress when connected.

Become a Partner

Currently we have the ability to partner with educators, schools, and community centers globally to use our free online Foundational Literacy course in English or Spanish with their students, geared towards children between the ages of 3-6. We have over 300 activities and countless books as resources for their development.
