You probably don't need us to tell you this, but it's buying time for classroom teachers, STEM professionals, and tech directors. To help move this process along and make it as easy and affordable as possible for you, we've created a bit of a glossary to help you find what you should be looking for. Buying technology can be a daunting process for educators, especially those who have never experienced the end-of-year crunch before. Whether you're focused on boosting your STEM program, starting a makerspace, or refining your school's tech goals, there's something on our store for you.
We stock a lot of today's top educational technology tools. Over 900 to be exact. Rather than you scouring our store to find the ones you think are the best, we thought we'd make it easier on you. Whether you want the best ways to teach coding, creative thinking, robotics, engineering, or something else, these are the best EdTech tools we've got! Having access to the best of the best will help make everything a breeze for you during the buying process—and come September.
Among our best back-to-school recommendations are the new-and-improved littleBits Pro Library, which now includes 316 Bits and 270 accessories. This giant collection of STEAM components enables students to work together and construct over 5,000 inventions while they let their creativity fly. There's also the new Sphero Cheaper by the Dozen Bundle, which includes 12 Sphero's, 12 covers, 12 units of maze tape, a charging hub, and more to help kids learn about programming and other STEAM concepts using robotics. If you're looking for something a bit bigger (and smaller), the Sphero Mini 30-pack is a must-add tool for the new school year. With this classroom-sized kit, kids can explore coding, design cool courses, and even drive their robot using their facial expressions! Check out more on using Sphero robots for coding and STEM.
We're also pretty high on other robotics tools, like the Ozobot Evo, Cubelets kits, and the Cue Robot from Wonder Workshop. The good news is that each of these three tech tools comes in a classroom pack (above) as well as in individual packages. Each can be used to teach kids coding, creativity, and strategic thinking when paired with a compatible device and offer a progressive approach to expand on coding education. Cubelets offers an easy entry into coding and Evo allows kids to explore the next step with Blockly programming. By the time they're ready for coding with the Cue (JavaScript), they'll be prepared to take on coding challenges in the classroom and in the real world!
