Introduction to robotics and programming for K-8 students helps them develop problem-solving, critical-thinking, and collaboration skills while making learning hands-on and fun. Robotics education also encourages students to be actively involved in their learning.. Shake by Boxlight has long been an advocate of prepare students for a future of diverse opportunities and experiences through its educational technology solutions, including STEM in focus products Today mimioSTEM introduces the next generation of its popular and award-winning mybot with the Shake mybot Recruit.
Recruit upgrades the award-winning MimioSTEM MyBot to a fully assembled educational robotics system with an easy-to-use interface and WiFi connectivity. MyBot Recruit’s comprehensive design makes it an out-of-the-box STEM educational solution perfect for K-8 students.
Key features of the new MyBot Recruit include:
- Magnetic and color sensors, two proximity switches, and an integrated gyro sensor to optimize STEM lessons and project-based learning experiences.
- Easy-to-use interface for users to build programs with graphical coding, block coding, and text-based coding languages, giving students all the tools they need to improve their skills, from simple drag-and-drop coding even the most complex Python coding.
- No software installation is required to control the Recruit, just a Wi-Fi enabled device such as a Chromebook and a standard web browser, allowing users to maximize space and learning opportunities without complex setup.
- On-device access to programming and hardware reference guides, tutorials, and more for efficient management of support needs.
- Access MyBot-specific lessons and design challenges from the award-winning STEM curriculum platform MyStemKits.com. Teachers can save time and energy having to create or search for suitable lessons. MyBot Resources at My power kits includes lessons and tutorials to help guide teachers and students.
- Add multiple activity mats specifically designed to enhance robotics learning in the classroom, such as city maps and maps of Mars and the Moon.
We are excited to introduce the new Recruit from Mimio MyBot educational robotics system to teachers and students and are confident that this easy-to-use, ready-to-use solution will quickly become a favorite for enhancing STEM education.
