Role
Consultant
Year
2023 — 2024
Outcome
CS & AI kits launched globally in 2026
The Context
Building on their prior iterations of electronics and robotics, LEGO Education sought to develop a Computer Science offering for use in global classrooms.
What we did
AnnMarie was brought in as part of the design team to assist in the early needs finding, development, and classroom testing of possible Computer Science approaches for LEGO Education.
She spent one week a month at headquarters in Billund, Denmark, and facilitated multiple early US-based tests of new concepts. LEGO Education launched their Computer Science and AI kits in 2026.
The Evidence
I can strongly recommend working with AnnMarie. Her passion and respect for children and teachers is evident in her approach to design and facilitation. She was able to hit the ground running on projects at LEGO Education, leveraging our internal team's skills and abilities, and come up with both innovative and relevant solutions. She brings a strong background in design, learning and pedagogy, able to work on the practical aspects of a product, while also being able to lead in classroom testing and focus groups.
