Microbric, the creators of the Edison Robot, recently released a new programming language for Edison known as EdScratch! With EdScratch, which is based on MIT’s Scratch language, students can practice drag-and-drop programming with a lot of functionality and we’re here to make sure you know about it and encourage you to give it a try!
The latest evolution in robotics education is here. Sphero has released its brand-new app-enabled robot, BOLT, and it’s the perfect tool for teaching robotics and programming! Bolster your school’s robotics program with all new ways to teach drawing, block, and text programming while creating endless opportunities for learning and fun!
Congratulations to Amanda Callahan-Mims from Spring Hill Elementary School in Knoxville, TN! Amanda and her students are in the process of transforming their school’s Technology Lab into a fully integrated STEM Lab and she’s using her background as an archaeologist to inspire her students to use technology in new ways!
While it may not be as bad as it was once thought to be, there will almost certainly be jobs lost to technology. While there will likely be jobs created in their place, however, there is no denying that technologies like artificial intelligence will have their place in our lives. They are already very much in it, in fact, with services like Siri and Amazon’s Alexa.
This week in the Eduporium Experiment, we’re diving into Part 2 of the Sphero Mini. In the first Sphero Mini blog, we addressed the differences between the Sphero SPRK+ and the Mini. This week, we are going to discuss the various apps that students can use with the Mini and how to apply them in a classroom, makerspace, or at home!
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.
Welcome to Eduporium’s Tips & Tricks blog! In this bi-weekly blog series, we are highlighting some of the best practices for using some of our most popular EdTech tools in the classroom. If you’ve been searching for a straightforward guide on how to best care for EdTech, this blog is the one for you. In today’s post, we will cover the Cubelets robots.
We’re introducing another new blog series for educators! Each week, we will take a look at an online STEM resource teachers can use to better their instruction with hands-on opportunities. In the first edition of Rising Resources, we’re exploring Robot App Store, a resource designed to help teachers learn more about robotics in a number of ways!
Our Educator Discount program allows any educator who purchases technology from us to save as much as 20 percent when they purchase from our store. While the discounts range in amount depending on what they buy, there is at least some of a discount on almost everything and here are some of the biggest educational discounts on our store.
Our team of innovators has created a one-stop online store for teachers to research and purchase the STEM and MakerEd technologies that will work best in their classroom. By providing almost any EdTech tool that teachers may need in one place, we have humbly come to think of ourselves as the modern-day ‘Amazon of EdTech.’
