Challenge the status quo!

About us

We are on a mission to amplify learning beyond the classroom. We are reaching out to faculties, instructors and staff who dare to change the status quo. Being educators ourselves we know this is a challenging task, but we also know that standing still is going backwards. Educational organisations will need to innovate non-stop to keep up with educational demand, industry standards and ever growing international competition.

Times have changed and a new era of digital education has arrived. We now better understand the challenges of teaching online and captivating individuals in a meaningful learning experience. It’s time to bridge the gap and offer instructors and learners a digital platform that matches today’s visual and social requirements.

Sketchdrive was founded to change the status quo.

Where does the Sketchdrive technology come from?

The Sketchdrive technology originates from a partnership between Sketchdrive and Technical University Eindhoven and was funded by the “Leren in Eindhoven 2030” call of the Eindhoven municipality. The aim of the Sketchdrive project (2014-2015) was to create ‘visual conversations online’, preparing Eindhoven’s design education for a major shift online in the context of a transformed design education. A prototype and a beta release were designed, developed and evaluated with various stakeholders in different educational contexts in Eindhoven, nationally and beyond. Extensive research on the effects of integrating the technology in various course programs was performed by researchers at the department of Industrial Design at Technical University Eindhoven. The joint effort in this project clearly demonstrated the technical and educational feasibility and underlined the benefits of an online visual conversation. The project was concluded with a set of teacher guidelines for visual feedback methods to help educators of design and other creative disciplines in Eindhoven and beyond understand how a visual feedback tool should be best employed in a creative setting.
