Microduino STEM Education Mix Kits

STEM education, and our passion for it, is why Microduino has teamed up with teachers, administrators, and academic experts. The result? A series of four powerful learning systems that progressively teach children, as young as five years old, electronic circuitry, coding, and product design. Microduino Mix Kits also encourage creativity and exploration, an integral part of STEM education. These kits have limitless applications that go beyond the included, pre-coded, projects. Collectively, the four learning systems represent an innovative STEM instruction approach that builds upon our company’s existing mPuzzle and mPie product lines. We deliver a comprehensive STEM education road map for elementary through high school students.

About

Our four Microduino Mix Kits include a combination of Arduino based hardware components and coding resources. Additionally, an extensive 250+ page on-line instructional manual guides students step-by-step through challenging in-class product development and coding projects. Each subsequent Mix Kit focuses on more advanced STEM education concepts. We want students to further their abilities to think logically and sequentially. Developing problem solving skills using technology-focused problems, is a huge part of how we contribute to the STEM education market. For more information about Microduino Mix Kits, and to order the product for your classroom, school, or school district, please contact Microduino’s sales department at sales@microduinoinc.com.

MIX Kit 1 - Microduino

MIX Kit 1

Coding is fun, and Mix Kit 1 introduces students to the world of electronics and coding in an enjoyable, easy-to-understand way. At this entry level, Mix Kit 1 provides students with step-by-step project instructions to familiarize them with electronics. Simple Microduino magnetic, snap-together building blocks are the bulk of this Mix Kit. Additionally, the introductory coding environment adds the value of logical and sequential thinking. Students learn how to solve problems by following an orderly methodology. In Mix Kit 1, students become familiar with:

  • Electronic components
  • Coding logic and variables
  • Reading and editing basic code
  • How to code basic behaviors
  • Introduction to Scratch Code

MIX Kit 2

Mix Kit 2 takes the knowledge acquired in Mix Kit 1, and builds upon it by letting students branch out with more sophisticated components. They will gain a deeper understanding of coding and its logic. In Mix Kit 2, students learn:

  • How to extend coding to two- and three-step functions
  • How to think in terms of organization, priorities, logic and creativity.

MIX Kit 3

Mix Kit 3 extends the underlying logic of coding to more advanced controls and behaviors. Students progress from learning how to turn on a single light to programming and sequencing multiple actions. In Mix Kit 3, students learn:

  • A wider range of behaviors
  • Sequential logic that creates interconnected dynamic behaviors (think Smart Home)
  • A prelude to artificial intelligence (AI), human logic, and how programming effectively corresponds to this ecosystem.

MIX Kit 4

Mix Kit 4 is a STEM education student’s paradise of learning logic and engineering. By the time they reach this level, students have acquired the skill set to write their own code and create original projects from start to finish. Mix Kit 4 includes a true engineer’s tools and project-based creations similar to previous kits. Mix Kit 4 has everything students need to:

  • Write original “Scratch” code
  • Conceive and engineer personalized creations
  • Design, invent and strategize
  • Make projects using Microduino technology for science fairs, maker faires, robotics clubs and much more!
