What sets fischertechnik apart?

 

Understanding technology through play!

The fischertechnik building blocks enable creative development and the playful experience of construction and assembly not only develops  manual dexterity, but also an understanding of the most important technology topics. This builds a bridge between fun and education. The children are encouraged to be creative, take on challenges and find innovative solutions. At the same time, communication skills are  developed through play. The joint projects make it possible to exchange ideas and learn from each other. These future skills are crucial for navigating and succeeding in our constantly changing world.

Educational excellence with fischertechnik
​

Pedagogues and psychologists from the Transfer Center for Neuroscience and Learning (ZNL) have recommended fischertechnik construction kits for the "Spielen macht Schule" campaign. Learning success with play fun guaranteed! In addition to the building sets in the toy sector and the learning building sets, which have been specially developed for use in school lessons, already assembled, compact functional and simulation models are also offered for training and demonstration purposes. Whether training, development or presentation: the fischertechnik training models are used worldwide in the fields of planning and simulation. They can be used to plan, develop and test industrial processes. Especially with regard to the topic of Industry 4.0, they are versatile.
