When it comes to STEM in 21st century teaching and learning, there are few limits to what students can accomplish. Besides helping boost their overall engagement and enjoyment levels in the here and now, access to STEM learning and opportunities to build real-world skills often significantly improve how students prepare for the future. Whether it's with introducing them to coding in the early grades, engineering in their middle years, or the benefits of more complex technologies, like virtual reality or artificial intelligence, in high school, STEM education is a crucial piece of student development. With such huge potential and importance, however, this instruction requires planning, guidance, and equipment. And, as the economy keeps trending toward STEM-dominated professions and opportunities, exposure to these areas is vital. Thankfully, there are few restrictions to leading effective STEM lessons.
Our mission is helping educators develop students who are truly Future Ready and helping them facilitate relevant learning is how. To that end, we offer a robust online store filled with the latest STEM solutions. But, beyond that, we love creating and sharing impactful content to help enhance how educators use these tools in instruction. In this section of our blog, you'll find countless posts on trending STEM topics, how-to articles, many recommendations for classroom solutions and projects, industry updates, connections between STEAM tools and the future, and a lot more. We are also extremely committed to closing certain gaps and increasing equity in STEM education. As such, a lot of this content contains context for advancing inclusive opportunities for all kids. We encourage you to search through the posts to find something relevant for you. And, if there's any topics we've missed, let us know.
Technology can enable the littlest learners to get a feel for what it’s like to work with their hands and engage in authentic problem solving. Sometimes, we’re even comfortable recommending technology that’s suitable for children who haven’t even entered kindergarten yet. You guessed it—the Code-a-pillar is one of those technologies.
If you’re so inclined to come visit us during our three days at the ISTE Conference, we would certainly welcome everyone, especially teachers, librarians, administrators, and makerspace leaders! If you need some more convincing, here are some extra incentives for you to drop by our interactive booth!
For this week’s experiment, we’re going to be taking a look at the newest of the brand new EdTech tools we have in our store. Developed and manufactured in France, Marbotic is an interactive way for early learners to get familiar with numbers, letters, and technology. They’ve created three different kits and we got them in our office just in
We know the summer is upon you, teachers. We still wanted to remind you that our Educator Discount program is open to all of you all year long. Whether you’re a classroom teacher, administrator, librarian, makerspace leader, tech director, or something else, educators of ALL kinds qualify for educational pricing at our online store.
You may remember a few months back we were excited to announce we had been approved as a registered provider of PD. Well, we finally got our PD feet wet last week and led our first hands-on teacher workshop event in collaboration with our friends from the Genesee Valley BOCES located in Le Roy, New York with about 35 people
Parents and teachers sometimes shy away from introducing younger children to coding and robotics because they are under the impression that these subject areas are too complex for kids in the early grades. We are pleased to say, however, that, thanks to the recent revolution in educational robotics tools, there is no reason to fear coding.
At Eduporium, we all know what it takes to provide an enriched, authentic, and inclusive 21st century education that will truly prepare today’s kids for real-world challenges. We also know this isn’t easy for principals and their teachers to attain. There are burdens to innovating in education, including, most notably, high costs of modern learning tools.
The Thames & Kosmos Hydropower Kit gives educators the potential to transform their classrooms into experimental labs and give their students the chance to investigate, innovate, and excel. Students can use versatile components to construct anything from a hydroelectric power station to an LED with flowing electricity.
We know how challenging it can be to find classroom-friendly tech devices for today’s STEAM-first educators. By partnering with the EF’s that provide technology for teachers, schools, and children, we’ve helped eliminate that EdTech research process and help ensure your students are left using only the best and most affordable technology as they prep for the real world!
