Library Science STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) Academy Proposed Technologies and their use in STEM Instruction Device Circuits Description and Price Educational Resources Makey Makey An invention kit that encourages people to find creative ways to interact with their computers using everyday objects as a replacement for keyboards and mice. Makeymakey Website- How to, lessons,  Replace your space key with a games, apps, videos. banana.  Use Play-Doh to move and click your mouse. Makeymakey Games  High-five your best friend to advance PowerPoint slides.  Make game controllers.  Make musical instruments.  Make many other inventions.  Program in Scratch Price: $49.95 Little Bits Gizmos and Gadgets consists of tiny circuit boards which snap together with a magnet. Circuits  Eliminates the need for soldering, wiring or programming as the specific functions such as light, sound, sensors, buttons, thresholds, pulse, motors etc. are represented by one bit.  When combining these modules, it transforms into a circuit that can be further used to create more complex structures.  Allows student artists and designers to build never before seen electronic projects with little effort.

Sphero 2.0: $97.19 Sphero Sprk $129.99 Apps: Tickle Sphero Draw and Drive Drive Students can experiment with various STEM concepts such as: Speed, Distance and Time - Use Sphero to figure out how time, speed, and distance relate to each other. 2D Geometry– Polygons and Angles - Guide Sphero to create polygons and learn the relationship between heading angles and the number of sides in a polygon where all sides are equal. Percentages - Program Sphero to move at 100% speed for a particular amount of time, and then measure how far it has gone. Then they will repeat the experiment with 50% and 30% speeds. Programming – Using the OrbBasic coding language. Students learn to code straight lines and distance related tasks. Sphero for Education Robots/ Coding Ozobot A visual block-based editor designed to introduce kids to the basics of coding and advance their skills with the incremental introduction of more advanced programming concepts. Starting with color markers, Ozobot allows kids to experience creative Ozobot Lessons Classroom Applications Ozobot: $59.99 drawing, problem solving and group challenges by coloring code commands in the form of basic color combinations. Apps: Ozogroove Ozobot Coding Coding (Web) Bloxels 13-bit video game designer that allows the user to create their own video games from scratch! Use the colored blocks to design video game characters.  Create terrain  Control Animations  Problem Solving  Cause and Effect Take a picture of it onto an Apple, Android, or Amazon Fire device and the video game takes shape. Bloxels: $49.90 Your students can use Scratch to code their own interactive stories, animations, and games. In the process, they learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively. Need Help? W atch the video on how to create a character. Creating a character Bloxels T utorials Create, play share. Lessons With Scratch, you can program your own interactive stories, games, and animations — and share your creations with others in the online community. Scratch helps young people learn to think creatively, reason systematically, and work collaboratively — essential skills for life in the 21st century. Scratch for Educators Guides and Tutorials Creative Computing Osmo Combines digital play with real world objects. Osmo comes with a reflector and stand for your iPad. It has a variety of games that allow students to solve puzzles, draw, learn words and more. Digital Play and Coding The Osmo allows you to mirror the iPad to an Apple TV where the whole class can participate and be part of a lesson where students can physically interact. Teachers Guide To Osmo Tangram:  Visual: Color recognition, pattern recognition, flipping/turning, 3D thinking, spatial relational, geometry  Advance and unlock over 600 challenging puzzles.  Collaborative: Students can help each other solve challenge Newton: Programs include:  Advance through engineering design Masterpiece- Pick an image from the challenges by manipulating physical objects camera, web or curated gallery and so that falling drops hit the targets while Masterpiece will transform it into easy-togetting real-time feedback. follow lines, helping you create beautiful drawings.  Exposed to physics and engineering by estimating distance and building structures to Words- Guess and spell the on-screen change the path of the drops so they hit the image. Download free content like trivia, targets. geography or upload your own.  Collaborative Newton- Newton works with any object or drawing. Place the object/drawing in front of the screen and manipulate it to guide the falling balls into the target zones. Masterpiece:  Fosters imagination and building confidence in creative work  It nurtures spatial intelligence  Great practice tool for drawing proportions. Tangram-Arrange wooden puzzle pieces to match on-screen shapes: animals, objects, humans and more. Lesson plans Numbers- Add, count and multiply the tiles to match the numbers on the bubbles. Popping enough bubbles will free the fish and unleash a storm of lightning and thunder! Osmo Starter Kit: $75.49 Set comes with reflector, base and Words, Masterpiece, Tangram and Newton programs. Coding-Osmo Coding uses hands-on physical blocks to control Awbie, a playful character who loves delicious strawberries. Each block is a coding command that directs Awbie on a wondrous tree-shaking, strawberrymunching adventure.
