Leveraging creativity to strengthen learners' spatial, computational, and systems thinking.
CONSTRUKTS® digital twin platform for learning consists of physical smart blocks, AI driven model analysis, and augmented reality user experience.  CONSTRUKTS® smart blocks can be assembled in a wide variety of creative constructions using our patented non-repelling electro-magnetic connectors.  Assembled constructions are rendered into 3D computer models. The computer model is analyzed for its structural features to support a variety of learning opportunities.  We are developing a learning standards aligned middle-school geometry pilot where learners will be able to see and understand how geometry applies to their creative constructions.

I am a huge believer in a constructivist approach. That ​students need to construct to understand. Why are formulas what they are? Why area length times width? Students should have to build it and see it and experience it so that the formula for the algorithm makes sense. They can’t do that with current EdTech applications.

There is now convincing evidence that spatial thinking abilities are important predictors of career success ​and that spatial skills can be enhanced with training. CONSTRUKTS® is a very promising game platform for training these skills.

CONSTRUKTS® can offer us real-time data driven methods to rehabilitate patients with traumatic brain injury. The method used to test spatial thinking skills remains to be the WAIS Block Test. CONSTRUKTS® would be a game changer with its ability to map a person’s motor skills to their problem-solving process.

The CONSTRUKTS®  Knowledge Engine is the model analysis component of the platform that responds to learner's questions and responses to curricula prompts by analyzing the computer model that replicates their construction for structural and computational features, (e.g. points, cubes, angles, volume, area, Pythagorean theorem, plane slicing, path finding, etc.).

CONSTRUKTS®, Inc.  transforms emerging wireless, computational, and user experience technologies into engaging products with our digital twins platform for learning. CONSTRUKTS® empowers learners by opening the playing field for thinkers who think differently. We do this by leveraging creativity as a vehicle for learning while also challenging the status quo of how these technologies are originated, developed, and applied. We believe that a team of "out-of-the-box" thinkers and makers from subject matter experts to students is required to develop technologies that empower people to realize their potential as innovators of the future.  CONSTRUKTS Inc. is a Delaware Corporation.
