Class Pack
Looking to build or update a CS and Robotics class?
Everything in one place to teach Computer Science, AI, and Robotics. We have developed a CS Dept. in a Box with curriculum aligned to CSTA standards. On Further (an interactive learning and coding platform) you’ll find electronics & robotics lessons to inspire beginner coders, and content to challenge advanced engineers. The class pack is ideal for smaller class sizes or for team learning.
- Includes: 18 Hardware Kits + 1 Year of Further LMS for teachers and all students
- Grades: 6+
- Recommended 1-2 students per hardware kit
- Access to all pi-top content on the Further LMS = 300+ Hours of Learning
- Teacher Certifications on the Hardware & Software
- Additional Resources: Further LMS Library Info, CSTA Standards Alignment Docs, Sample Course Scope & Sequence Doc, Sample Lesson Plan, Supporting Neurodiversity
Integrated Teaching, Learning, & Class Management
Do you find teaching CS using hardware in the classroom a challenge? Further, our turnkey CS teaching platform connects 300+ hours of premade CSTA-aligned lessons with the pi-top device for CS instruction. You can roster students using Clever or Google, customize & assign lessons, access teacher resources, deliver in-class or remote instruction, track progress and assessment.
Beginner Level Coding & Robotics
Access beginner level projects that can be used in CS classes and STEM classes. Students will use their creativity, mix in electronics & code to experience an introduction to programming while building problem solving and computational thinking skills. With Block-pi, a block-based language, coding becomes more accessible and easier to understand.
Advanced Level Coding, Robotics, AI & Machine Learning
With our advanced curriculum, students design, construct, and code complex projects using pi-top's custom lessons and code libraries. Our premade courses are aligned with CSTA standards and focus on CS, robotics, gaming, and AI topics.
Applied STEM and Competitions
Push students to apply what they have learned in school by linking coding with STEM in pi-top’s interdisciplinary lessons - connect Geometry with AI & robotics, align Biology and Earth Sciences with code through smart agriculture. Want to hold robotics competitions within your class or school? Check out our Block-pi and Python robotics based tasks here!
