In the News & Updates section of our blog, you'll find updates on many of the latest STEM developments. These include happenings from the STEM and MakerEd worlds as well as important Eduporium announcements. This is where we'll share updates on product additions, announce the recipients of our monthly educational technology grant, pass on company news, highlight upcoming events, and discuss a whole lot more when it comes to cool topics in STEM education. Beyond our STEAM coverage, we also touch on various elements of 21st century learning. These include remote instruction, special education, social-emotional learning, and equity and diversity. If it's happening in the world of education, we're interested. And, we'll offer our analysis on what's affecting students, teachers, and administrators, attaching our genuine thoughts to keep you updated.
This is an area for us to keep a repository of recent happenings. Whether it's the release of a new type of technology, any additions to an EdTech product line, the arrival of new brands to our store, or some thoughts on the current state of education, there's a good chance you'll find it here. As time has gone on, we've participated in more STEAM and makerspace events. So, we've started to keep curated collections of those experiences. You can find them all throughout the News & Updates category. As Eduporium continues to expand and we get to participate in more STEM education projects with educators in some of the country's biggest school districts, we'll share those stories, too. We hope our collective accomplishments and partnerships with members of the K–12 community inspire others to innovate in new ways!
After setting tech tools up, sliding in some batteries (if necessary), and turning it on, some educators are often left wondering ‘what comes next?’ For that reason, we’ve been big advocates of creating easy-to-follow starter activities for teachers to use in the classroom and now we’ve taken that initiative a step further!
At Eduporium, we truly believe in the power of partnerships. We’ve cultivated some lasting relationships with schools and educational programs all over the Northeast. After helping these partners perfect their technology offerings for their students, we’re always thrilled to assist them in other ways, too!
At Eduporium, we serve educators in a number of ways. At the top of our list is making sure they have easy access to all the EdTech they need in one place. Since there are hundreds of STEM tools on our store, we welcome feedback from teachers who have used them so we know we’re always getting them the technology
It’s designed exclusively for use with the Cue and allows students to try something new while coding. Now, they can create typed code that gets the Cue to launch the foam projectiles and unlock many new elements to learning with robotics! Keep reading to learn more about the accessories students can use with the Cue and where you might be
The Root Robot is a dynamic teaching tool in education. Not only can it help students learn multiple coding concepts with graphical, computational, and full text coding options, it can be programmed to draw and climb whiteboards! Right now, we’re offering qualified educators the chance to try a Root Robot in their classroom.
We’re constantly monitoring these developments and assessing how new technology can be used in the classroom to advance 21st century education. In the first installment of a new mini video series, hear from Eduporium co-founders on the importance of STEM education and how we can help affect the futures of today’s students
It’s time to announce the recipient of Eduporium’s $500 EdTech grant for the month of March. And, the winner is…Jacqueline Firster, a dedicated makerspace manager and STEM teacher from Arlington Public Schools in Virginia. Jacqueline is going to be using her award to create a mobile makerspace and enriched PBL in her school.
We’ve added six new tools from Makeblock to our store and they are ready to help educators enhance their STEM teaching. Among these new options are a couple of add-on packs for students to invent and code with the tried and true mBot-S and mBot Ranger in different ways, a remote control for a new way of controlling the robots,
These days, flying drones involves more than just controlling its height and movements with a remote control. Some more advanced drones can be programmed to complete short flights, snap photos, and show students how coding and drone navigation are related. Head inside to learn about some of the best.
The awardee for the month of February is Laura Luker, a librarian from the Pioneer Valley Chinese Immersion Charter School in Hadley, MA! Laura works with students of different ages starting in elementary school and all the way up through high school and some of these students are challenged with some pretty cool projects each year.
