South Korea is globally recognized for its highly regarded education system, consistently ranking among the top in science, math, literacy, and reading. The market has established an extensive network of science museums, extracurricular programs, and initiatives that promote scientific exploration learning.
A cornerstone of South Korea’s education strategy is its strong emphasis on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education. From early coding lessons to hands-on electronics projects, South Korea creates numerous pathways for young learners to explore and excel in STEM disciplines.
DKSH Korea recently organized the “Korea Kids Science Adventure” for DKSH employees’ children. This initiative, led by DKSH Korea’s Technology Business Unit, utilized advanced laboratory equipment and scientific techniques to make science both accessible and engaging.
During the event, young participants conducted a variety of interactive experiments designed to spark scientific curiosity. They explored the principles of density by separating rice water using a centrifuge, mixed and separated oil, and water with a vortex mixer, and even extracted DNA from tangerines. These hands-on activities introduced complex scientific concepts in a fun, approachable way, fostering a sense of wonder and discovery.
The “Korea Kids Science Adventure” exemplifies our commitment to fostering a family-friendly corporate culture while aligning with global sustainability values. By bridging the gap between professional expertise and family engagement, the company provides unique opportunities for learning and growth.
