| Source: PCS Edventures!.com, Inc.
BOISE, ID -- (MARKET WIRE) -- February 1, 2007 -- PCS Edventures!.com, Inc. (OTCBB : PCSV ) today
announced the deployment of its PCS Academy of Robotics™ and other
hands-on learning labs to multiple sites throughout the state of Kansas,
through a partnership with the Kansas Kids @ GEAR UP program. Kansas Kids
@ GEAR UP is a U.S. Department of Education-funded program, with Wichita
State University serving as the host institution. Children in foster care
are given top priority for services, while limited income and children in
adoptive care also qualify for this program.
The implementation includes the PCS Academy of Robotics, Edventures
On-Line, PCS Academy of Science™, PCS BrickLab®, and K'NEX®
Education learning lab packages that were delivered to multiple sites
across six regions throughout the state of Kansas, including the cities of
Pittsburgh, Topeka, Kansas City, Wichita, Hutchinson, and many others.
Bill Albert, National Sales Manager for PCS Edventures, said, "This
exciting implementation is the result of over a year of hard work,
including competing against several local and national suppliers, to get
this $150,000 order with the Kansas Kids @ GEAR UP organization. In the
end, it became an easy decision for them due to the depth and breadth of
our content. It's wonderful to see such a well-managed organization
delivering our materials to these children, for a very worthy cause."
Corinne Nilsen, the State Director of Kansas Kids@ GEAR UP, said, "We are
thrilled to have such exciting hands-on resources now available for our
students. The curriculum, support, and engaging approach to education by
PCS is truly a powerful solution for our staff. Our students can't wait!"
