We’re all about saving teachers money on the EdTech tools they need for true 21st century learning. True, we are about this every day of the year. Today, however, we’re even more about this because, you know what? It’s Black Friday! Starting RIGHT NOW, you can enjoy incredible, weekend-long savings on some of the best EdTech products in our store.

The Code–a–pillar is a robotic tool for introducing kids as young as three to coding. Its replaceable sections—just like the ones on a real caterpillar—represent different actions and kids customize them and control the robot’s movements! No other early education STEM tool provides a better balance of programming and play than the Code–a–pillar.

Unfortunately, we can’t take all the credit, but we’d like to think that we play a small role in helping usher teachers into the 21st century. Now that most schools in the country and in the world are focusing a lot more on STEM education, upgrades need to be made to that as well. What’s the saying? Most of what

Did you catch us in Boston this past Friday? Or were you lucky enough to be at AASL 2017 in Arizona last weekend? If you were there, hopefully you stopped by to visit us. If not, don’t worry. There will also be plenty more opportunities to see our booth in person the rest of the year. More on that later,

VR is making its way into the educational sphere, empowering students to explore previously unreachable destinations and interact directly with virtual objects. A few weeks ago, I experimented with the Oculus Rift virtual reality system, and this time I got to try out the HTC Vive—just another perk of working at Eduporium!

Coding is arguably far and away the most important skill that our students need to learn and the structure of today’s economy certainly supports that belief. It’s not that simply the highest-paying jobs require workers to be proficient in coding—it’s even starting to trend towards the entire workforce needing coding skills in some form or another.

Boston’s world-famous Museum of Science is in the process of redesigning its famed Blue Wing and hosted a dinner Monday night to announce new plans for how they will enhance STEM learning for a broader audience. Among the highlights of the Putting Your Tech Foot Forward event, were distinguished speakers and hands-on stations.

Every week of the past month, we’ve been appearing at events, presenting at others, and I think we even attended one or two as guests. Now that the craziness of October is over, we can relax a little bit in November. No, wait. That’s not true. November is going to be just as crazy. Oh well, here’s a list of

Since it is Halloween and all, we got to thinking about how teachers could celebrate with technology. Sure, they could build something to scare their students, but that could take time and we’re all about helping teachers save time. We thought the next best thing would be adding some appropriately colored robots to the fold.

If you’ve been following along and following our social media, you certainly know how busy we’ve been in October. That trend continued last week as we headed to upstate New York and spent some time with our good friends from the Syracuse area, attending two separate events on Wednesday and Thursday.
