Comprised of three different robots, Milo, Veda, and Carver, RoboKind’s solutions are designed to help students with learning differences meet their academic and social goals. Starting by empowering educators to help students foster social connections, these robots can ultimately be used to aid student emotional well-being and more.

Whether students are coding with the micro:bit and MakeCode or using it with other STEAM tools, it’s a powerful tool for CS education in any grade. Speaking of its integrations, the micro:bit is compatible with a number of other technologies, allowing students to add exciting elements to various STEM projects!

While not impossible, planning for STEM in remote or hybrid learning does present obstacles for educators, including finding the time to fit it into class meetings, creating lesson plans, and getting materials to students. Online STEM platforms have provided one solution, but, in order to replicate that classroom experience, it can become tricky.

Both STEAM tools combine various elements of engineering and coding in what they offer to students. These robots are buildable, too, which enables students to explore engineering as they work to figure out how to build the bots correctly. Once they’re built, children can work on programming them whether they’re at home or in the classroom.

We added the databot kits to our offerings just a few months back and this small, cube-shaped robot is certainly now a powerhouse when it comes to STEAM education—even in the remote variety. Using its on-board sensors, which include air pressure, altitude, CO2, and humidity sensors, the device is capable of collecting a whole lot of real-world information.

Google Expeditions has become a technology staple in many schools due to its ability to transport students to another location without them ever stepping foot outside the classroom. Students can become immersed on a guided tour through multiple locations or historic events, like The French Revolution and a lot more!

STEM-Works is a website that anybody can find valuable—not just educators. Anyone who has a passion for STEM education can use STEM-Works to find resources to learn more about STEM teaching approaches, STEM careers, and how to get children more interested in potential career fields within this area.

Kid Spark’s Mobile STEM Labs combine hands-on experience with robust, NGSS-aligned curriculum to inspire lifelong learning and teaching in STEM. Kid Spark’s four mobile STEM labs and detailed curriculum are designed for students in K-8 and are easy to use with or without prior STEM experience and each lab is entirely reusable

The Kid Spark building kits serve as a great STEAM solution by combining reusability, mathematical precision, and ease of use in building blocks that are as appealing to students as they are to teachers. Kid Spark provides a progressive approach for teaching STEM—from simply counting blocks all the way up to text-based coding for autonomous robots!

For this week’s Rising Resources, we took a look at the coding resource, PictoBlox. It’s created and supported by the STEMpedia team and allows students to create games, design their own interactive projects, and build their own programs for controlling robots. It can be used to introduce students to block coding and reduce intimidation.
