Many hands, many languages, one lab

MEKALUMI will grow through the people who use it. Here is how different people will be able to contribute.

Contribution channels are not open yet. They are being prepared carefully, including how contributors’ data will be protected. They will be listed here when they are ready.

Who can help

  • Developers

    Improve the lab, the simulations, the tools and this website. Help keep everything fast on low-cost phones.

  • Teachers

    Create and test lessons, share classroom experience and tell us what children need.

  • Translators

    Translate and review the website and the lessons. Native speakers of African languages are especially needed.

  • Designers

    Create illustrations and interfaces that work for children of every ability.

  • Scientific advisors

    Check that simulations and lessons are correct and honest about their limits.

  • Schools and organisations

    Try the lab in pilot projects, connect teachers and help bring it to communities.

What you can do today

  • Tell teachers and parents about the idea.
  • Try the engineer’s loop with simple materials at home or in class.
  • Read how translations work, so that you are ready when contributions open.
