I am teaching our school's first ever computer science class where the students are learning about physical computing and how humans interact with the digital world. We are looking for resources to help students build whatever they can come up with such as 3D pens, Sphero robots, Makey Makey and other art supplies. The students will use these tools for their next project where they will create their own games for an arcade as well as future projects. These tools will help the students learn 21st Century Skills and support their computer science education. We are preparing students in middle school for a world that does not yet exist when they graduate college so we would like to give them opportunities now that will help them be successful in the future.
