BriefGlico has supported the growth and development of children for over 95 years. Through snacks and sponsorships, the brand is synonymous with Japanese childhood. Our snacks already make their way into the hands of children around Japan but we wanted to find a way to create something with real utility that truly aided a child’s development.While the world embraces programming education, Japan’s school curriculums are dated and lagging behind. So how could we combine the latest technology with the magic of our brand allowing our kids to keep up?We created GLICODE, the first ever educational app that uses image recognition to turn candy into code, teaching the fundamentals of programming. The app turns three popular products into bite-sized programming lessons which teach three basic principles: "BASIC SYNTAX", "IF STATEMENTS" and "LOOPS". GLICODE has already made its way into elementary schools and it's been incorporated into the national curriculum. ---- Glicode is the first ever educational app that uses image recognition to turn candy into code, teaching the fundamentals of programming. The app turns three popular products into bite-sized programming lessons which teach three basic principles: basic syntax, if statements and loops. In Japan Glico uses its iconic products to introduce children to the three principles of algorithmic thinking: basic syntax, loops and if statements. Using a smartphone and their favorite afternoon snack, eager minds lay out chocolate covered snacks, capture images and run sequences.
