Avery Rueb, Co-Founder
Affordance Studio

Affordance Studio makes classroom solutions that revolutionize the way we learn. Most worldwide schools don’t have stable WiFi connections making it impossible for teachers to use effective digital solutions to develop 21st century skills and knowledge for their students. Their solution is Dokoma, a learning management system (LMS) which can travel in a modified Rasperry Pi. Mr. Rueb will talk about the future of classroom content creation and delivery throughout the world. Read More
