Your partner in STEM 

Inventor Jack Penman wanted to help learners of all abilities and backgrounds to realise their potential to become tomorrow's innovators, scientists and engineers.

He didn't want them to face the same barriers he experienced as a student.

"Those that think and learn differently are the ones who will make a difference to solving the worlds problems"

So he invented the JackBord Pro, a powerful, unique, enduring tool and system that will excite, inspire and partner students throughout their learning journey to confidently explore science, create engineering projects, learn about electronics, develop programming skills, master robotics, analyse data, and have fun doing so. Since he has developed the JackBord Basic, TOPS (to learn electronics), a Universal Sensor Interface, JacKano, Virtual JackBord and Octagon for kids to learn coding.

“Let’s deliver them a path that can take them to a variety of destinations, limited only by their imaginations.”

Limited only by your imagination

With the incredibly powerful JackBord Pro and entry level Basic supported by numerous components and extensive easy to follow guides and activities, the possibilities for learning and exploring are virtually endless.

We support you to master STEM so that you dare to dream, explore, develop and realise your imagination.

Engage in forums, share your projects with us and other JackBorders.

The world needs you! to take on science, technology and engineering.

JackBord will partner with you to get there.

Jack spoke about his own learning experiences and challenges, and why he created Jackbord at TEDx Kapiti in a talk titled "Why I'm terrified of being normal"

Educators are able to deliver curriculum and qualifications (and learn themselves!)

We don't set out to be educators, however teachers will find they can easily apply our activities to meet curriculum and provide qualifications.

Jack's detailed yet easy to follow videos and written guides and activities mean that students (and teachers) can learn without assistance or further guidance, however we recommend the guidance of teachers or parents.

JackBord is ideal for teacher professional development.
Whilst our guides and activities are designed for self learning we provide online support throughout your journey. Your partner in STEM.
