Challenging tasks, bold graphics, clear concepts.
Sets of engaging activity cards designed to teach elementary school kids essential STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) skills as well as introduce them to state of the art technologies. There are five sets total, each focusing on a specific technology: Sphero, Dobot, littleBits, 3D Printing, and micro:bit.
Every handheld card includes a branded logo, vector illustrations, an activity, and a challenge question to push students' knowledge further. Developed in partnership with STEM Education Works of Lafayette, Indiana, these cards promote critical thinking and problem-solving, providing educators with a valuable tool to inspire the next generation of innovators. Illustrations were created to be whimsical, drawing students in and piquing their interest. The inclusion of the specific technology in some illustrations also used to help students become more familiar with the equipment available to them in their schools' STEM lab.
