Students are often required to use a computer and work with digital modules to get familiar with coding languages and syntax (i.e. code.org). While this is a great and invaluable tool for teaching coding, there is so much more that kids can do with code—especially when it comes to applying what they know to real-world scenarios!

While teachers and parents may not notice the benefits clearly for another couple of years, using technology to enhance learning for kindergarteners is actually a pretty wise decision. Adding a new wrinkle to early education can help promote inquiry in students, provide opportunities for beneficial collaboration, and help them start to develop both STEM and soft skills.

This just in…We’re holding a contest and we want YOU to win! Starting on May 1 and continuing every day for one year, we’ll be posting a new trivia question on our website. The first person to submit a correct response is that day’s winner! And the prize? A $100 gift to our EdTech store, which has been made possible

Whether you’ve got an eager team of inventors or an elementary-aged bunch of curious. FLASHFORGE’s line of easy-to-use 3D printers help teachers revolutionize STEM education with simple innovation that just works. With four affordable models, these top-notch tools are ready to help you reinvent hands-on PBL! And, LulzBot isn’t too bad either.

Our culture empowers everyone to think outside the box, engineer, innovate, and grow. ‘Why be tied down to one place when I could be inventing in my own backyard?’ Joy Labz, creators of one of the original and most popular maker tools (the Makey Makey), has come up with an ingenious solution to this very problem: The Makey Makey GO!

Designed with all the built-in features students need and strong enough to survive your entire school year, these compact machines can help catalyze collaborative learning in your classrooms and help you create a hassle-free 1:1 program in any grade level. It’s easy to manage, use, and afford as the HP ProBook connects educators to the classroom solutions they need.

We’re big fans of STEAM education. Like, really big fans. If you’re not familiar with what the A in STEAM stands for, or even the other four letters for that matter, STEM represents science, tech, engineering, and math with the A added in to represent art and create a more well-rounded 21st century education with opportunities for expression.

We’re here to let you know that you are in luck. We’ve just launched our in-depth, special 3D printer page on our site and thought you’d love to be the first to know! We’ve searched the world for the best 3D printers for schools with the lowest prices and best functionality. Each new model that we offer is purposefully selected

We had a crowd that was larger than expected at Café Escadrille in Burlington, MA and tons of immersive learning in the form of presentations and virtual exploration. Attendees included educators and industry enthusiasts made up of VR experts and novices who all shared the same passion for exploring this technology.

Green technology is a great teaching tool, because, in every classroom, no matter its size, economic standing, or location, there’s access to at least one renewable resource. In this week’s Eduporium Experiment, I took a look at Snap Circuits Green, a part of Snap Circuits’ successful line of STEM education tools focused on illustrating alternative energy.
