    Innovation is more than using technology, it is changing students’ ways of thinking to empower them to think critically and solve real-world problems. Our curriculum focuses not only on technologies and subject areas, but also on soft skills that are so important in today’s global environment. Collaboration, team building, social-emotional learning, perseverance, and critical thinking are themes that run throughout our units. Every lesson includes hands-on activities that let students experiment and learn in ways that meet their individual needs. Each book is standards-aligned and designed with flexibility in mind. Divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced, the lessons can be adapted to students’ level of experience with and knowledge of the technology. Each unit follows the 5E learning model: Engage, Explore, Explain, Engineer, and Evaluate. *Sphero not included

    micro:bit is a tiny programmable microcomputer, designed to make learning how to code easy and fun! From dancing robots to banana keyboards, your micro:bit has all the features you need to code – the possibilities are endless! It can be coded from any web browser in MakeCode, C++, Python, and Scratch. Not only that, but it works interconnectedly with all the ELECFREAKS kits STEM Education Works is proud to offer. Important: The micro:bit v2 does not include any cables or power sources. This is just the board. We recommend picking up a micro:bit AAA battery holder or a micro USB cable as well to power your board. Contact us for orders over 300 Check out the mico:bit v2 Go Bundle or the micro:bit Power Pack.
