Jasmine teaches all subjects, so this allows her to create some pretty fun, cross-curricular lessons. These types of lessons make it possible for her to teach her students all about interesting and relevant subject area content while also introducing them to the world of computer science and coding—and some of her favorite tools to use are the Dash, Dot, and

We’re putting together this running collection of remote learning resources for educators to explore during school closures caused by the coronavirus. We will make updates to this page regularly as new resources are provided from reputable education providers and we wish everybody lots of success in remote teaching and learning. You’ve got this!

Starting in early elementary, students can use the Root Robot to try block coding, move onto hybrid coding in upper elementary and middle school, and then use it to learn text coding in upper middle and high school. Since teachers and students now find themselves navigating remote learning, its newest features help make the Root even more appealing.

AI is a technology that’s made a pretty substantial impact on our lives—whether we realize it or not. Educators are now relying on technology to teach more than they ever have and, before we dismiss how AI can play a role, it might be worth knowing more about just what that role is and how it can help teachers and

Students—particularly those who love trying new, STEAM-related activities or experiments—might be looking for any new things to try at home by this point in time. Well, if they do, in fact, enjoy STEAM, there’s a great new tool they can try with any computer. The SpaceX team has created this docking simulation tool that anybody can use to practice landing

Writers from the educational publication, EdTech Digest, announced last week the finalists and winners for all sorts of various categories in EdTech excellence. Eduporium was selected as one of five finalists in the exciting Maker/DIY Tools Solution category, underscoring their commitment to providing K-12 educators with hands-on STEAM solutions.

The team at Tech Will Save Us has created a unique line of STEAM learning tools—kits students can use to learn about a lot of different aspects of STEAM education. From conductivity and circuitry to coding and sewing, their increasing variety of options provides something for students with various interests to design and construct projects at home.

It really didn’t take very long for us all to recognize (or remember) how fully equitable access to technology isn’t always guaranteed. While equity is the topic for this week’s Rising Resources blog, we’re stepping a bit back from talking about it in the sense that it’s been talked about over the last couple of months and introducing you to

In case you missed it, the shift with the former STEAM supplier, littleBits, to Sphero now seemingly came full circle. Last week, social media posts from all of the former littleBits channels indicated that everything would soon be moving over to the Sphero channels and, a little bit earlier this week, that’s exactly what we saw happen as this merger

This month, the award goes to Save Our Children Elyria, a big afterschool program in Elyria, Ohio! The group helps support many local K-12 students throughout the Elyria City Schools with various academic and nutritional assistance year round and, since learning has transitioned largely online, they’ve created a virtual makerspace for students!
