With classes getting underway this past week in a lot of the country and other students really getting into the swing of things, we thought we’d take some time to reinforce how learning with technology can spur development and help them build some of the skills they’ll need most. This week, we’re taking a look at some of the best brands in EdTech.
Sure, just throwing a VR headset into a classroom and letting kids do with it what they please might not be the best approach. Luckily, there are alternatives, like Google Expeditions. With these programs, students can leverage tailored content in an interactive way all while their teachers guide them through lessons that are optimized for education!
In some parts of the country, school has already started, but for those who return back right before or right after Labor Day, there is still a bit of time to do some EdTech research and discover some new tech tools to potentially bring into the classroom for the new year! So, here’s some suggestions for tech tools to use in many different areas of STEM.
