TangiXLearn overview

TangiXLearn is a platform dedicated to creating interactive, hands-on learning tools that bridge physical exploration with digital guidance. Built around the idea that children learn best through doing, TangiXLearn aims to bring scaffolded tangible learning into after-school and classroom settings—making abstract STEM concepts approachable, creative, and fun.

TangiXLearn is the overarching initiative of our research and design work. It serves as a home for various learning tools, starting with our first product:

TangiBUILD

TangiBuild is a smart tangible learning tool that helps children aged 6–12 understand concepts like structural stability, geometry, and engineering through building activities with real-time feedback.

Children construct 3D shapes using familiar tools, while built-in sensors and visual indicators guide them to improve their designs. Through scaffolded learning and creative play, TangiBuild fosters critical thinking, collaboration, and problem-solving in a playful yet educational environment.
