Drone Maker Kit

Engineering and creativity lead the way in this open-ended and all-inclusive kit! The STEAM Builder Bin can be used for a range of educational concepts – from design and construction to implementing the engineering design process. This kit is perfect for every learner of any ability. Included in the kit are gears, connectors, and other pieces, along with idea cards to prompt students' imaginations. The idea cards have three levels of difficulty and 15 different topics; the opportunities are endless!

Introducing the Drone Maker Kit by Pitsco Education. With the Drone Maker Kit, you are given a system for designing, building, and flying your own drone! This kit is customizable and enables students to work through the engineering design process to iterate their own drone design. This kit brings the ultimate level of engagement while also teaching the basics of engineering and aviation through drone flight. The sky is no longer the limit with drone technology!

Operation Breakthrough is a nationally accredited nonprofit that has served Kansas City since 1971. They are mission driven to provide hands-on learning experiences with supportive teacher interactions. From the earliest ages, students are offered a range of activities and focuses. Each new chance can spark curiosity and interest in fields they might not have otherwise considered. The classrooms are safe places to experiment, fail, and try again. Students are encouraged and coached. By using developmentally appropriate products like Bee-Bot and Blue-Bot, students are building mindset, skill set, and opportunity with each experience. From its inception to present day, Operation Breakthrough continues to break down barriers and champion kids. Their community partnerships and focused work provide enriching, high-quality STEM experiences early in life, giving all children the opportunity to achieve their full potential.

We provide future-ready learning fundamentally rooted in STEM with coding, robotics, and full-scale programs. We believe in hands-on, minds-on experiences with personalized learning, essential skills, creative learning environments, career exploration, and customized programs. Together we can help students create: mindsets, skill sets, and tool sets to thrive no matter their path.

Pea Ridge Public Schools wanted more for their students. Their workplace-readiness revolution is powered by hands-on, minds-on learning. Superintendent Rick Neal initiated a program that would better prepare students for the workplace and higher education by partnering with Northwest Arkansas’s business and industry leaders. The Pea Ridge Manufacturing and Business Academy (PRMBA) took off! But the students entering the program as juniors and seniors needed more preparation prior to the program. Neal identified an internal pipeline problem, and Pea Ridge Exploration of Pathways (PREP) program was created. By partnering with Pitsco Education, STEM education is now the place, activity, and method through which Pea Ridge students build their workplace-readiness skills.

Are you planning an out-of-school or summer program? Let's get together! Your goals are our priority. Each and every program has its own unique challenges and needs; that's where we come in! Our team of former educators can craft one-of-a-kind programs that fit any need. Learn more about how we've delivered the resources and support to craft successful programs across the country at Pitsco.com/Summer-Learning.

We believe STEM is more than academic knowledge; it’s what happens during a project, a group discussion, a presentation, or an activity. It’s the challenges, failures, and a-ha moments. It’s the place where and the activity through which today’s students can develop and practice skills that will prepare them for success in a world they’ll live in that we can’t yet describe. Student success . . . #ThisIsSTEM

Anyone, anytime, anywhere robots? Absolutely. Introducing TETRIX Virtual Robotics Powered by Robotify. Engage every learner with an immersive digital and physical coding and robotics experience. With built-in curriculum and resources, you've got everything you need to deliver a blended robotics program. You got this.

Educator Caleb Boulware at Pittsburg Community Middle School shares how he’s seen students, at all levels, succeed with STEM Expeditions. Statistically significant test score improvements and development of soft skills are why he believes in this hands-on, minds-on curriculum.

Since 1971 we've been working to enable students to succeed in school and life with hands-on education. Our student-centric approach and integrated STEM concepts help students master 21st-century employability skills including collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving. Together, with educators across the globe, we are positively affecting learners and building the leaders of tomorrow.

You can do more with metal. Combine TETRIX PRIME and EV3 to build more robust robots and expand the learning opportunities. Begin the journey with this Main Build that’s made possible with the exclusive EV3 Module and curriculum. This first Getting Started has students building a bot that is programmed to maneuver around obstacles without sensors.

Tim Lankford gives you all the details about our new EV3 Module. Yes, we’ve made our TETRIX® PRIME system completely compatible with EV3. This pairing means you can create robots that are bigger, stronger, more complex, and more real world. Simply use your EV3 Brick, sensors, motors, and LEGO® elements and combine them with the PRIME metal system and watch your students accomplish feats that cannot be done with plastic alone. Plus be on the lookout for the next RoboBench video where we'll discuss the all new TETRIX PRIME and EV3 Curriculum Pack with 30+ hours of content that delivers the tools you need for more building, more coding, and more learning.
