Eduporium co-founder, Irina Tuule, discusses strategies that educators can use to ease into EdTech usage. By starting slow and integrating new STEM tools in any way that is comfortable to them, educators can set themselves up for increased student engagement and eventual success levels all while trying some different things—just like in The Little Red Riding Hood!
To kick off the start of the summer months, we’re offering educators access to some of our best deals ever. While supplies last, you can enjoy 50 percent off select EdTech tools on our store. So, if you’re looking to get your summer classroom shopping done early and prepare all your EdTech tools for the start of the upcoming school
The Root Robot is a dynamic teaching tool in education. Not only can it help students learn multiple coding concepts with graphical, computational, and full text coding options, it can be programmed to draw and climb whiteboards! Right now, we’re offering qualified educators the chance to try a Root Robot in their classroom.
These days, flying drones involves more than just controlling its height and movements with a remote control. Some more advanced drones can be programmed to complete short flights, snap photos, and show students how coding and drone navigation are related. Head inside to learn about some of the best.
Since we launched our grant program, we’ve received many excellent proposals and have learned a ton about the creative projects educators have in mind! With that, the latest recipient of our grant is no exception and we’re excited to introduce January’s awardee, Martha Lanaghen from MakerBolder, an afterschool organization in Colorado!
This organization was derived from one of the oldest and most prominent organizations for children in the country. We first partnered with them two years ago and, after working together for one year, were asked to return for a second year and provide twice as much content and STEM kits for the students involved around the country.
Charter schools are becoming really popular alternatives among parents all across the country. Once thought of as a sure thing, now parents often find it to be a struggle to get their kids enrolled due to the high demand they’ve generated. It’s easy to see why charter schools are now so popular—these educators are doing great things for kids and
When students are given the freedom to invent unheard of solutions to problems and go about solving them in unique ways, they’re building a foundation for the future. A lot of the tools we’ll use in the next decade or two haven’t been invented yet. Most likely, a student somewhere in a K-12 school is going to be responsible for
After six weeks of using various STEM tools in their learning, students will be in the spotlight in less than two weeks, so we thought we’d check in and see how things have been going! Last Friday, we visited six different elementary school classrooms, where students were using different STEM tools—click to see how it went!
Collaboratively created by the Eduporium and Highlander teams, the super unique program has allowed children within three Rhode Island elementary schools to use new STEAM tools in their classrooms. Those technologies? A lot of them were generously donated to these educators by our partners from Ozobot, Modular Robotics, Sphero, E-Blox, and Microbric.
