At Eduporium, we search all over the world to try to locate the most useful, innovative, and exciting new technologies to deliver to the K-12 academic community. If products can boost creativity and spark a new enjoyment of learning, we’ll want to tell you all about them! With that said, let us present SpatialNote, a brand new space-related way to remember crucial things.
There’s so much that goes into a successful EdTech rollout and not all of it comes from the effectiveness of the products. We’ve outlined how to use technology to create the most memorable learning experiences possible and who teachers should connect with in order to become tech teaching experts! Explore that and more in this week’s post.
Teachers need to work with the students in the classroom to create a tied-together program that impacts their learning positively and is enhanced by using technology. Check out how you can use technology in the classroom this year to help make your teaching go from scary to scary good!
Imagine math software that let’s kids move at their own pace. Imagine it being aligned to the Common Core State Standards (the standard skills and learning outcomes that have been adopted by forty five states and the District of Columbia). Imagine that this software is a series of games and levels that students find engaging.
Dr. Keith Explores is a new blog series written by Dr. Keith Yearwood, a geoscientist at the University of Maryland.

With the obvious shift to jobs centering on STEM-rich areas, schools are gearing up to educate their students on science, technology, engineering and math in earlier grades and in more rigorous ways than in the past. The presence of and necessity for STEM skills in the 21st century is showing to be truer than ever.
As summer keeps heating up, get excited about some new findings in the technology world that could include talking Wi-Fi! According to reports, Wi-Fi-enabled devices will likely soon be able to swap tiny messages when they detect each other, which will make it easier for users to connect with only those that they are interested in.
The most basic levels is the S (Substitition)- using technology as a simple substitution for more traditional models with no change. A (augmentation) is the second level where technology is used as a substitute with some minor improvement. These two levels are considered “below the line” meaning that they don’t really use technology in the most effective way.
Remember that list we made? I made a short list as well and one product contains isopropyl alcohol, 2-butoxy-ethanol and ammonia. I have another item that has a warning label that a poison control center should be contacted immediately if the product is swallowed. The product is to be used to clean surfaces like counters and bathroom sinks and tubs.
