Makeblock AIoT Education Toolkit Add-on Pack

The optional AI & IoT Education Toolkit comes with 31 mBuild electronic modules and 10 accessory kits. With this kit, students can learn about Artificial Intelligence (AI), apply technology to everyday life, and create projects using sensors and visual programming. Modules are programmed in both block languages and Python. A wide range of coding blocks is available to users to create various projects. Online help, Python API, hardware manuals and project samples will help stimulate students' curiosity and imagination and develop their understanding of AI.
On January 20, 2020, the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine proposed a draft order , teaching aids and equipment for classrooms and STEM-laboratories "in order to provide general secondary education institutions with modern equipment.
This project is a new step in the development of education and approaches to learning in schools. Students will be able to learn science, technology, engineering and math by interacting with gadgets and smart electronics and learning how they work directly during lessons. STEM classes do not focus on the teacher, but on the practical task that needs to be solved. The teacher becomes a mentor, explains how to use the potential of each technology in the project. Students solve practical problems through trial and error, rather than studying "dry" theory.
STEM laboratories come to the rescue to fully implement this approach. They are equipped with 3D printers, educational electronics kits, robots and other technical means to give children everything they need to realize their potential. ». This certificate recognizes that all of the equipment in this article meets the pedagogical requirements. For general secondary schools, the most useful are 3D printers that work on the technology of melting plastic thread. Devices with this technology have a simple design, compact size, are safe to operate and affordable. [Br] Ukraine has a wide range of 3D printing equipment, but most devices are available in the open. Yes, there is a manufacturer of equipment that promotes devices in a protected closed version, with which ERC has been cooperating for three years - XYZprinting. The new order identifies 3D printers, the consumables of which are biodegradable plastic PLA (PLA). XYZprinting is the only manufacturer of equipment in Ukraine that offers PLA-plastic of its own production. In addition, absolutely all models of 3D printers XYZprinting can work with this plastic. implemented by the ERC service center.
Compliance of 3D printers manufactured by XYZprinting with the pedagogical requirements of the new order is confirmed by a certificate received by the company in December 2019.
