As educators, how can we teach students to engage with challenges like climate change and environmental health? Our spring webinar series tackled these questions with one of our favorite environmental education tools: databot 2.0. In our model of Ecological Education, EdTech tools like databot are key to facilitating students’ appreciation of the environment.

Our model of Ecological Education, or EcoEd, uses principles from Nature to inform all learning. In this white paper, we explain the need for a shift to project-based learning and the formation of an “Ecological Mindset.” EcoEd can equip students with the knowledge, skills, and values needed to create a sustainable future.

Physical activity shouldn’t be limited to recess and gym class. After sitting in the classroom for hours each day, students want to get up, run around, and get their wiggles out. And teachers want a break from the everyday routine. Enter Unruly Splats. These programmable floor buttons have applications in math, ELL, special education, P.E., art and music classes, and

Each of the UBTECH UKITS comes with its own curriculum. By following detailed project guides displayed in 3D on the UKIT app, kids can explore STEM topics in a hands-on way. Plus, in the lessons, educators can cover everything from force and motion to earth science and natural disasters with hands-on building and collaboration. Check out the new AI kits

Although DJI recently discontinued the Tello EDU and RoboMaster drones, educational drones offer a solid path to teaching programming and piloting skills in your classroom. We spent time with our new addition, the CoDrone EDU, learning to fly and program. Compatible with Blockly and Python, the CoDrone EDU is a top coding companion for kids in a range of grades.

Unruly Splats are interactive buttons designed for students to stomp, jump, and play upon. With pre-coded, standards-aligned activities and their own custom games, students get out of their seats while learning programming principles and SEL skills like working together. Play games for any subject, including math, ELL, special ed, art, physical education, and more!

Providing our teachers support involves different approaches for different situations. As teachers face novel challenges from in-person learning, new technologies, and more, it is essential to give them the tangible help they need to thrive. Self-care, social-emotional strategies, collaboration, and material resources can all help to alleviate teacher burnout.

Like the original databot Robot, the databot 2.0 is square in shape but it is not a perfect cube unlike that original model. The newer databot is shorter in height, making it a much more compact robotics tool. More importantly, it’s also outfitted with 16 powerful on-board sensors that students can use to measure anything from light levels to air

Recent issues with student attention have inspired teachers to incorporate more audiovisual elements, like podcasts and videos, into the classroom. Research shows that interacting with videos in class improves students’ engagement and retention of STEM content, as well as increasing class satisfaction. Look inside for tips on using video elements in the classroom.

The Cubetto is a wooden robot that educators can use to introduce kids to coding at as early as three years old. Perfect for any students in preschool, Pre-K, or kindergarten, it features a 4-part system that’ll help to ease them into learning coding concepts and creative thinking skills. Plus, with these Cubetto bundles, it’s easier to integrate STEM across
