We think that everyday should be code day—at least in today’s K-12 schools. It is, however, Code Day in our hometown of Boston—actually Code Weekend if you want to get official as educators and makers around the area are celebrating the power of coding this Saturday and Sunday. And, we’re celebrating with them thanks to our Code Day Sale!
Without moms, there wouldn’t be any future-ready kids poised to take on the world thanks to an all-encompassing STEM education. Just like how mothers help them in life, EdTech helps kids grow in school and shapes them to be the learners that mom knows they can. And, believe it or not, there are some connections between robots and the things

It’s on its way to (if it has not already) becoming a worldwide language—and an undeniable component of global culture. So, recently, enthusiasm for teaching coding skills in the classroom has grown—a lot—and kids are benefitting.
Sure, you can write code to a computer program to gain your coding experience, but we prefer to leave that to more experienced scientists. You probably never realized this, but many modern and simple EdTech tools involve teaching the basics of coding. For example, in recent years, coding has even found its way into the educational robotics field.

One, my stomach growled loud enough for my family to hear it back in California; and two, I jumped from behind my desk and asked where the pie was, and who had
Basically, this is a Quad core Micro Computer with built-in Wi-Fi along with its own Arduino Due on one board, which enables students to program the Udoo from itself or even remotely. One of my favorite things with this board is the SATA connector, as well as the included Bluetooth adapter. So far, all I’ve done is test a few
