This was back in 2015 when me, as a new person to electronics, also wanted to introduce electronics to my daughter who was then about 12 years old. We started our journey pretty much similar to how everyone else does. We bought a Arduino and bunch of other other electronic components. In addition to the electronics knowledge, it was must to have the coding skills to be able to do even the simplest of the simplest projects, such as glowing an LED. Even for a software engineer like me the whole journey was very overwhelming. After a few trials, my daughter pretty much lost interest in pursuing it further, looking at the complexity it involved. That's where I discussed with my friend Harish, who was an expert maker, to understand how this journey can be made easy and fun. This is where the idea of Cretile was born. Idea was to build something which is as easy as playing with Lego blocks. We created electronics modular building blocks and called them Cretile which combines two words: "creative" and "tiles" Enabling students to build their creative landscape.
We have been supplying the Cretile kits to a large number of NGOs and private organizations across the globe. These private organizations and NGOs carry out education programs in the schools. We also help these organizations with exhaustive teaching resources such as video curriculum, ppts, session plan, curriculum connect etc. This makes the teaching quality quite consistent across various scenarios. Students enjoy learning through the hands-on activities. Interestingly it was observed that the attendance on the days of the STEM class is typically higher than the other days.
We are spreading our reach organically very well. We have reached to about 5000+ schools and 5000+ Tinkering labs. We are present in India, Nepal, South Africa, UAE, Ghana and few more countries.
