In the News & Updates section of our blog, you'll find updates on many of the latest STEM developments. These include happenings from the STEM and MakerEd worlds as well as important Eduporium announcements. This is where we'll share updates on product additions, announce the recipients of our monthly educational technology grant, pass on company news, highlight upcoming events, and discuss a whole lot more when it comes to cool topics in STEM education. Beyond our STEAM coverage, we also touch on various elements of 21st century learning. These include remote instruction, special education, social-emotional learning, and equity and diversity. If it's happening in the world of education, we're interested. And, we'll offer our analysis on what's affecting students, teachers, and administrators, attaching our genuine thoughts to keep you updated.
This is an area for us to keep a repository of recent happenings. Whether it's the release of a new type of technology, any additions to an EdTech product line, the arrival of new brands to our store, or some thoughts on the current state of education, there's a good chance you'll find it here. As time has gone on, we've participated in more STEAM and makerspace events. So, we've started to keep curated collections of those experiences. You can find them all throughout the News & Updates category. As Eduporium continues to expand and we get to participate in more STEM education projects with educators in some of the country's biggest school districts, we'll share those stories, too. We hope our collective accomplishments and partnerships with members of the K–12 community inspire others to innovate in new ways!
The Carvey is quite a powerful, simple, and accessible CNC machine that will put children in control of their Maker Ed experiences! With its free and easy software program, students in middle and high school can transform any ideas to digital designs then into tangible objects as they build maker, invention, and innovation skills that’ll serve them well for years
With the affordable 3Doodler, students as young as 10 years old can design and engineer three-dimensional objects to enhance their artwork and their creativity! With its lightweight frame and simplified controls, 3Doodler helps kids add tech-based, artistic innovation to the school day with artistic creativity and STEM connections.
The Sphero Mini is exceptional at introducing students to topics like physics, problem solving, creativity, collaboration, and coding. Unlike other robots, however, the Sphero Mini is completely round. This allows it to roll around—sometimes pretty quickly—and enables kids to control both its movements and speed with code.
This cool looking car—the GoPiGo Robot from Dexter Industries—is a great tool for helping students advance their coding skills. It’s buildable, so they get the engineering aspect of STEM education and, once they have it built, it’s programmable over a simple Wi-Fi connection! The single GoPiGo kits are great for children at home, at school, or in a camp.
Most of the time, the best part of hands-on learning is the collaboration that comes with it. Thanks to the classroom packs recently added by Wonder Workshop, that remains the case. Over the last few years, the Dash and Dot Robots have helped students code, create, and become Future Ready with their engaging activities.
If you buy three MakerBot Replicator+ 3D printers and a 1-year plan of MakerCare Preferred on each of them on or before Dec. 30, you will get a fourth Replicator+ absolutely FREE! A free 3D printer—and a top-notch one at that! So, like we said, if you’ve been toying with the idea of bringing 3D printing to your students, now
We don’t care how. We just want to help teachers get kids coding. And what better time of the year to do so? We trust that everyone has been having a great CS Ed Week, but if you want to try some new things towards the end of it or carry it over into next week or even next year,
Rather than have two separate sales for Black Friday and Cyber Monday, we thought we’d just combine the two into one big, long, savings-filled event. So, all the savings you could get starting Friday at midnight are going to continue until Tuesday at midnight. Open the post to shop and save on brands like Snap Circuits, Makey Makey, and more.
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.
