A sincere EdTech product to learn life skills I signed my daughter (age 10) up with Doyobi after a good friend who is very savvy with education and children development highly recommended Doyobi. She said that Doyobi teaches life skills, communication skills and team work. These are skills which I want my daughter to have, so I signed up. We have experienced about 10 sessions so far. These are the strengths I see in Doyobi: 1) Encourages creativity and independent thinking: I noticed that my daughter was given tasks and missions that are open-minded in nature. There were no clear right or wrong answers but lots of room for discussion and personal views. 2) Happy and self-directed: I was also heartened to see that my daughter was upbeat after each session, and looked forward to more. I wish I could say that for tuition and school. 3) Collaborative work: Participants are not pit against one another but work together towards resolving conflicts or accomplishing a mission. 4) Attractive and engaging themes and missions: The themes are very current and thoughtfully designed. Some that I noticed were solving an environmental crisis, appeasing a dragon, facing off with some aliens, working with AI and robots. 5) Gamified interface: The interface is like those simple yet addictive RPGs. The commands are easy to pick up. It can certainly be better but being simple has its beauty. It does not take the focus away from the interaction among participants. 6) Skillful facilitation: The facilitators are able to elicit feedback from participants while guiding them to think creatively and critically. My only complaint was that my daughter was so excited during one of the barter trade sessions that she was almost shouting throughout the session. I guess she might have potential to be a stock trader. 7) Offers a chance to interact with children from different backgrounds: I noticed that other participants in my daughter’s session were from other countries. Some of them might be children of expats who were in international schools here. It was heartening to see that my daughter was able to communicate with them naturally. 8) Post-lesson reviews: I appreciate the post-sessions short reports that were sent to me. At least I know what has gone on during the sessions.

A fun way for a kid to learn about the world Doyobi enables my kid (10 to 11 years old) to participate in simulated real world projects that explores various facets of the world, which includes nature, robots, AI. The knowledge learnt from the classes is only one facet of doyobi programme. Another more important learning outcome from the programme is empowering my kid to develop critical thinking (being curious about a problem and asking questions) and team work (participating as a team member in the conversation). After each lesson, I’m happy to see my kid excited to share about her learnings and her thought on the issue/problem (quests) raised.

The kids rated it "11 out of 10" My children (10yo and 8yo) absolutely love the Doyobi classes and workshops! They rated every session "eleven out of ten", they loved the "quest" format, and they've maintained a great connection to their teacher Ms Penny. The types of problems they solved were fun but required a lot of great planning and critical thinking skills. Highly recommend this to parents looking for engaging digital learning experiences for their little ones!

Doyobi: Guiding Kids to Think, Understand, Learn and Create Doyobi delivers a true learning experience. Children are introduced to topics such as climate change, artificial intelligence and human augmentation drawn from real world contexts, and encouraged to understand the opportunities and concerns that belie these areas of global interest. I love how the Doyobi platform and content is carefully designed to interest and engage a global classroom, and connect kids from diverse backgrounds and abilities to think, understand, learn and create through group discussions and individual reflection. The facilitators are friendly, knowledgeable and yet firm in guiding the learning process so that it is meaningful and productive. My 11 year-old and 7 year-old are ready and eager to be at Doyobi every week. I never have to remind or hurry them to log on. Doyobi is never boring. It truly offers experiential learning that has to be experienced to be understood.

Doyobi creates relevant topics for… Doyobi creates relevant topics for kids to discuss, among themselves. Current events are good to keep the kids in the loop of what’s going on in the world and how to give power of communication to young minds to brainstorm and solve problems. This, ultimately open doors for young minds, to be more involved and responsible about the issues around them. While school focuses on getting kids to pass examination.
