| '''CYBER KIDS''' was a nation-wide social entrepreneurial experiment launched in 1992 in Cyprus by [[Yiannis Laouris]], [[George Vakanas]] and [[Maria Symeonides]]. The Research and Development of its award winning curriculum was done by the [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]]. Within the first five years (1992-1997) 26 computer- learning centers were launched with average of 50-150 students enrolled every year in each location. By 1999, the number of children who benefited from the Cyber Kids curriculum in the 36 Branches exceeded 15,000, which is approximately equal to 20% of the country’s youth population (ages 6-15). CYBER KIDS has also contributed against brain drain by employing a total of 186 young scientists between 1991-1999. More importantly, [[MISnTED Ltd.]], the owner company had a policy of employing teachers from the public educational system as part-timers as a means of contributing to a large-scale reform from within the system. | | '''The Multimedia Factory'' was the first multimedia company in Cyprus launched in 1992. |
| | |
| | It was founded as a subsidiary of [[MIDnTED Ltd.]] with [[Yiannis Laouris]], [[George Vakanas]] and [[Maria Symeonides]] also as shareholders. TMF was serving also [[CYBER KIDS]] as a technology group working with kids ages 8-12 to develop their projects into final commercial products. [[Dinos Georgiades]] and [[Stelios Stylianou]] have contributed with many ideas and products: Dinos supported [[CYBER KIDS]] students to develop professional versions of their projects and sell them through the factory. Stelios, together with George, led the development of multimedia information kiosks placed at airports, museums and ports to inform people about the Cyprus problem and the Turkish occupation. |

| ==The "profitable dream" concept== | | == The Multimedia Factory in the Media== |
| CYBER KIDS was based on a concept coined by its creators then called the "profitable dream":
| | The Multimedia Factory enjoyed substantial visibility from many media. |
| * They envisioned that introducing advanced computer technology in the lives of a critical number of young children using an educationally relevant and socially responsible, peace-enhancing curriculum would allow them to promote creativity, innovation, imagination, and problem solving abilities, thus “transcending” the country’s educational and political life and move the new generation a decade ahead.
| |
| | |
| The project was founded on a well-defined vision statement:
| |
| * ... to re-define the tools, methods and purpose of education, in light of relevant social change.
| |
| | |
| The vehicle chosen to disseminate the impact of the project and its vision was the profit-making concept of franchising, thus creating new business both in Cyprus and in the seven countries in which it expanded, thus spreading the Cyber Kids philosophy and knowledge to many more spheres of social life.:
| |
| * Lebanon (1994)
| |
| * Israel (1995)
| |
| * Greece (1996)
| |
| * Jordan
| |
| * Egypt (1997)
| |
| * USA (Oregon: 1998)
| |
| * India (2000)

| ==Company evolution and death==
| |
| CYBER KIDS was an internationally registered trademark of the mother company, [[MISnTED: Management Information Systems & Technology Development]]. The three founding members, [[Yiannis Laouris]], [[George Vakanas]] and [[Maria Symeonides] donated 30% of their total shares to the [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]] in order to fund its socially responsible research operations. In addition, [[MISnTED: Management Information Systems & Technology Development]] provided yearly grants to [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]] for research. The project was originally funded by the partners' and by a CY £44,000 government loan. All key people were invited to join as partners: [[Dinos Georgiades]], [[Evros Alexandrou]], [[Harry Anastasiou]], and all employees were given shares totalling to £250,000 of value.
| |
| In 1996, the [[Cyprus Development Bank]] became a partner with 10% in the Cyprus (mother) company and 30% in the Greek subsidiary, investing £100,000 and £300,000 respectively. It was under the leadership of the [[Cyprus Development Bank]], that in 2000 CYBER KIDS merged with 11 other companies to form a public, high-tech company known as [[CYBER GROUP]]. Unfortunately, the crash of the stock markets in combination with a number of unconstitutional laws passed repetitively by the Cyprus Parliament allegedly to "protect" the rights of investors, forced CYBER KIDS to bankruptcy along with more than 100 other entrepreneurial companies.

| ==A strong supporter of research and community==
| |
| Over the years, CYBER KIDS has supported financially, sponsoring or providing required co-financing, many of [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]] projects and initiatives, including:
| |
| *[[Youth promoting Peace]]
| |
| *[[Technology for Peace]]
| |
| * [[Extending EU Citizenship]]
| |
| * [[SafenetCY]]
| |
| * [[Cyberethics: Cyprus Safer Internet Center]]
| |
|
| |
| The philosophy and some of the curriculum of CYBER KIDS are now used in [[Cyberethics: Cyprus Safer Internet Center]].
| |
|
| |
| ==The Innovation==
| |
| The award-winning curriculum of CYBER KIDS was characterised by a number of innovations:
| |
|
| |
| # Each lesson has 4 phases:
| |
| * Stimulation leading to role reversal Discovery
| |
| * Discussion about tools necessary (Identify tools)
| |
| * Learn the tool and use it to complete the project
| |
| * Deliver the product
| |
| # The focus is on projects and technology is never mentioned
| |
| # Each lesson is structured as a KnowledgePacket, combining goals in multiple dimensions
| |
