Mali Medical App for New Moms
According to Nobel prize-winning economist James Heckman, prenatal care produces the highest return of investment in education. In response to these findings we developed Mali. We aim to educate new moms during pregnancy, a time when they are open and ready to learn. Our goal is to help lower their levels of stress during this channeling time and inform them about a healthy lifestyle and best practices in child-rearing.

Try FAiL DO
Project Based Learning Online
Try Fail Do was a prototype for a social learning platform where students learn new skills free of charge in a fun and engaging way. We developed the platform because we could not find a learning management system (LMS) that allows us to create massive open online courses (MOOCs) that would enable students to do project-based learning with peer feedback. Between 2015-2021, we offered five courses: Learning How to Learn, Portrait Drawing, LINE Sticker Design, Economics, and Creative Thinking, which we offer in Thai and English. 90% of our 10,000 students were teenagers aged between 14-17 years, some of which take the course together with their teachers or classmates. We put the project at sleep, due to the lack of technical resources to maintain the page.

Thai School Survey
To get a better understanding of how to improve education in Thailand, we use social platforms to reach out to students and ask them to tell us about their experience in school. Between 2015 and 2017 we surveyed over 4,000 students from all over Thailand aged between 11 and 19 years. Here are some key findings from the last survey:
70% like going to school, up 3% from 2016
30% are confident that their school fails to prepare them for their future, up 44%
45% reported that their teachers were offered good grades for “special favors”, which is a decrease of 13% from 2016.
50% reported having been hit by a teacher last year, down 10%.
35% said they are not practicing speaking in English class, up 17%
