Besides offering a robust online store for STEM supplies, our team is also extremely knowledgeable on these solutions. If you're unfamiliar, our offerings include everything from classroom robotics kits to virtual reality systems, 3D printers, esports equipment, and a lot more. Not only do we offer all of these items in one place, however, we can also help educators evaluate and implement new technologies. As a way to better recommend specific STEM solutions for specific situations, we also created this consultation service. Essentially, we're happy to set up formal and informal meetings with educators to learn about their goals, situations, and needs. This helps us gain a clearer understanding of how we can help them meet all of their objectives. And, of course, offering consultation services also helps us determine how teachers can complement their instruction with STEM tools.
We're also very flexible in terms of how we facilitate these consultation sessions. Typically, we'll meet with an educator or group of educators using video conference platforms, like Zoom. Then, from there, it is completely up to the audience members to ask any questions they want on any of the topics that we're knowledgeable on. This could include a product demo, initial conversation about technology suggestions, or anything else that is helpful. We try to keep these meetings short and informative so they don't take up too much time. This also helps us offer this service free of charge. If you're interested in potentially leveraging the Eduporium consultation service, we encourage you to reach out to us. We'll then work out a time to schedule formal sessions when they're convenient for you. And, remember that, if you're hesitant about trying new STEM tools, we're always here to help.
One of the best things about school makerspaces is that so many different events can foster productive learning experiences. Since maker learning is so closely connected to 21st century development, MakerEd activities and exploration remain popular with both students and teachers. So, if you are looking to start a makerspace in your school, what are key things to know?
The EdTech purchasing process should be enjoyable, informative, stress-free, and as affordable as possible. Our team specializes in helping make all of these things happen by offering a one-stop online STEM store, free consultation, and a hassle-free quoting process to make your purchases as smooth as we can by helping educators identify key focal points.
Our maker experts are very well-versed in makerspace tools, technologies, budgets, and design—something that we have recently put extra effort into developing.

Here’s how.
Each school makerspace is different but, if you’re looking to add hands-on maker tools to yours, we offer a huge variety for K–12 STEAM learning. For this list, we’ve highlighted lots of our most in-demand offerings—from low-tech starter materials to high-end MakerEd machinery. Whether you would rather start small or make your space robust, they work in any situation.
Makerspaces really help educators create dynamic and real-world learning scenarios for students but they do not always have to include all the latest bells and whistles. So much planning sometimes goes into designing new school makerspaces from your budget considerations to your technology research and, if you’re looking to get started, our team is ready to help.
We understand that, as an educator, your plate is still extremely full with academics and prioritizing your own mental health.

If you’ll be in Atlanta for the GAETC, we encourage you to come by to learn more about our offerings or to just say hi.

As teachers, however, we know you’re always thinking about what you can do to improve your classrooms and offer your students a more exciting and relevant learning experience in the fall. Naturally, our first suggestion is to add new EdTech and STEAM tools. But, we know that it’s tough for many teachers to work these kinds of things in.
To us, being partners means that we’ll always help educators learn what’s best for their students and develop a plan to achieve those goals—not try to sell them the most expensive tools out there. See how we can partner with your school, library, or makerspace to help empower your students with technology they can use to build key skills.
