It’s not just the seasoned scientists and computer programmers who might invent world-changing and progress-focused solutions. In fact, there’s also plenty of inventive kids and teens out there who have left their mark on the world with both big and small inventions, and some have even contributed to key inventions throughout history. So, let’s learn about a few of them.
In schools, AR tools help foster unique and strong learning experiences for students of all ages. In fact, its versatility offers teachers so much potential solely in terms of amplifying engagement.

Representation in STEAM fields remains invaluable, especially considering that lack of visibility among AAPI individuals. For this AAPI Heritage Month, we’re excited to recognize major accomplishments of these STEM leaders, who have made great strides in areas like computer science, public health, treating illness, or tracking storms all while continuing to improve our lives.
ChatGPT’s vast knowledge base and uniquely effective imitation of human writing styles make it a powerful tool for both educators and students. But, as a lot of students employ ChatGPT as a homework aid, some educators are wondering whether its disadvantages outweigh its uses.

So many factors go into how education leaders ensure students are ready for the real world and, often, it involves STEM. Factors like technology, the economy, emerging careers, and the state of the workforce each continue to affect how teachers introduce students to STEM. And, as of now, there isn’t much indication that the elements fueling STEM education will slow.
While there are fewer kits than with the Google Expeditions line, the quality of each is important. Currently, we offer three TD Synnex kits on our store, differentiated only by the number of units in each one of them (10, 20, and 30). Perhaps most notably, each of the three kits comes with the same set of components and the ExpeditionsPro app pre-loaded on all devices.
Equipping students with the job skills for the future is a challenge because we don’t necessarily know what life in the future workforce will be like. We can make an educated guess though and, with added assistance from our partners at UBTECH Education, we’re exploring some of the most relevant skills and how UBTECH’s STEM products can help students acquire them.
