Key Characteristics
Transform your classroom into a 21st century innovation lab
Experiential and Project-Based Learning
This program is fundamentally project-based, with increasing levels of complexity and an overarching technical design effort. Lectures are kept to a minimum; encompassing less than 20% of the total class time.
Industry-Based
The program is designed directly by Fortune 500 engineers. The curriculum authors’ experience training young corporate professionals enabled the development of an internship-like experience in the classroom.
Modular Program
The program is split into units and modules that can be used in the given sequence or independently. Teachers have the flexibility to adjust the scope & sequence based on their schedule and students’ needs.
Target Grades 6-12
Adaptable for a variety of grade levels within 6-12. The core program is designed to fortify less experienced students while keeping advanced students engaged through numerous customization options within each unit and project.
Comprehensive Engineering Program
Designed by Fortune 500 engineers and experienced, passionate educators to maximize engagement, the program covers a broad spectrum of engineering from 3D modeling & design to integration & test.
Career Connected
Each unit is carefully crafted to emulate industry practices. Students explore engineering industries & disciplines through interactive modules and experience the life of a robotics engineer through the lifecycle of a real-world program.
Personalized Learning
Teaching in an experiential & project-based setting allows teachers to create and track students along various learning trajectories in the same classroom. As students implement different designs to solve a central problem, they are graded not on a single “correct” answer but rather critical thinking skills evident in design decision justifications.
Half or Full Year Delivery
The complete program (Levels 1 & 2) contains two semesters of materials broken into 7 modular units. This provides teachers schedule flexibility as well as customization opportunities to accommodate various student experience levels.
No Prerequisites
Designed with built-in customization for all students; the novice and experienced alike. Through the guided yet experiential nature of this program, beginner students will quickly learn new skills while experienced students face challenges that test the problem-solving skills of even the most seasoned student teams.
Fully Reusable Hardware
The STEMI Hexapod robotics platform delivers cutting edge technology while being extremely budget-conscious. The Hexapod is fully reusable year-to-year, requiring only a software reset and disassembly before the next group of future STEM leaders begin their adventure.
