🎯 Every activity is designed to surface student reasoning, support iteration, and make thinking visible—whether students are coding, building, or planning.

🎙️ Built for Builders, Thinkers, and Problem-Solvers

Robotics isn’t just about the robot—it’s about collaboration, systems thinking, and rapid problem-solving. Curipod gives students the space to plan, test, reflect, and explain—together.

Curipod is purpose-built to support:

• Team-based engineering discussions
  
  
• Real-time coding explanations and diagrams
  
  
• Reflective practice after a build or match
  
  
• Dynamic teacher facilitation, not static slides
