Our Beginnings

TechnoKids Inc. was founded in 1993 by Scott Gerard. The development of the company was in direct response to a growing need for children to be computer literate. At the time, there was limited access to computers in schools. The first TechnoKids learning center opened in Oakville, Ontario. Computer classes and workshops were taught to TechnTots, TechnoJuniors, TechnoSeniors, and TechnoTeens. As well, on traditional school breaks, computer camps were offered to children.

In was not long before TechnoKids learning centers started opening in countries throughout the world. The learning centers required quality instructional materials. TechnoKids Inc. began to publish unique technology projects for use in these learning centers.

The technology projects were designed specifically for children. Unlike other instructional materials that were designed for adults and then used to teach kids, TechnoKids technology projects included meaningful activities that were fun to complete.

TechnoKids Computer Curriculum

Over the years, technology became more affordable. Schools were installing computer labs, school districts and Boards of Education were drafting technology standards, and teachers were struggling to integrate the use of computers into curriculum. There was a growing need for quality instructional materials designed specifically for schools.

In 1997, TechnoKids Inc., partnered with John Knox Christian School (JKCS) in Oakville, Ontario, to develop computer curriculum for schools. At first, TechnoKids staff taught the computer classes. This allowed the curriculum development team to modify the instructional materials to suit a school environment. Later, the JKCS teachers taught their own computer classes.

Today, TechnoKids Inc. still has an office at JKCS. There is a window that divides the office from the computer lab. This allows the curriculum development team to observe daily, children learning from activities that are part of the TechnoKids Computer Curriculum. It is this close connection with teachers and students that help to make the instructional materials easy to use.
