The Skoog 2.0 is a tactile device that students can utilize to create sounds and music based on how they touch the various sides of this cube-shaped structure. It’s soft and even somewhat squishy, mimicking the top side of a drum with its unique texture but the Skoog 2.0 helps K–12 music teachers create learning experiences that are equally fun

Throughout 2022, we’ve hosted an Eduporium webinar series and focused on some of the newer technologies we offer. In this series, we collaborated with a few of our manufacturer partners, who each certainly shared helpful insights on their classroom tech solutions. Head inside to learn more about four of our newer teacher tools for advancing STEM learning opportunities.

Today’s four most common learning styles include visual learning, auditory learning, kinesthetic learning, and, finally, reading and writing. Almost all of our students fall into one of these categories and, as you may guess, since it combines hands-on exploring with solving problems, kinesthetic learning is the one that’s most often associated with hands-on STEM education.

The Glowforge 3D laser printers are some of the most capable high school STEM solutions we offer. Using these machines, kids easily create tangible designs from tons of different materials and each one helps CTE educators unlock truly future-focused instruction in makerspaces or classrooms. And, they’re quicker than 3D printers with lasers that cut and engrave rapidly.

STEM and STEAM education, understandably, have plenty in common and educators can use some similar tools and strategies while they’re teaching both. To start, STEAM education involves opportunities for students to add more artistry and creativity to these projects and, by moving from STEM to STEAM, they can learn to display their knowledge using new techniques.

The Mayku FormBox is a largely ready-to-use STEM solution with (almost) everything that students need to start manufacturing their own molds. The pack comes with the FormBox, Mayku Cast sheets, Mayku Form sheets, a power cord, a first making kit, a suction tube, and even a universal vacuum connector. They just need a vacuum tube and we have all the

What started out as a cool and unique chance for students to develop key skills while trying out new technology has grown into a legitimate teaching and learning approach. Now, with applications in all sorts of today’s STEM and CTE disciplines, educators are discovering how teaching with various drones can help prepare students for the future in a variety of

Capitalizing on a great deal of genuine learning opportunities that, perhaps surprisingly, we can find within television shows and movies, ClassHook is a platform that helps turn the programs kids are watching into educational experiences. While TV usually serves as a break from learning, there’s also knowledge weaved in and ClassHook helps you find top media resources.

You probably know by now that we are huge advocates of makerspaces in K–12 schools. The added freedom for creating, hands-on experimentation, and exploration that they provide for students helps them learn in so many new ways. Now, many educators have even gone as far as to create their own makerspace curriculum after seeing all the benefits for students.

The general ChatterPix app allows students of any age to create and share interactive images or greetings with people anywhere in the world, helping them showcase their creative side in a tangible way. Whether they’re using it just for fun, as part of graded class projects, or even for designing cards or notices, ChatterPix makes a great educational tool for
