School Pack
Looking to build a Robust and Flexible CS Program?
We have developed a CS Dept. in a Box to enable any teacher to teach CS. Our CSTA-aligned curriculum contains electronics & robotics lessons to inspire beginner coders while challenging the advanced engineers. The School Pack is ideal for large class sizes or to augment STEM classes with PBL. With Further LMS, we make CS instruction and class management simpler for teachers, so schools can rollout CS CS programs quickly and meet state mandates.
- Includes: 30 Hardware Kits + 1 Year of Further LMS for teachers and students
- Grades: 6+
- Recommended 1-2 students per hardware kit
- Access to all pi-top content on the Further LMS = 300+ Hours of Learning
- Hardware & Software Teacher Certifications
- Additional Resources: Further LMS Library Info, Certifications & PD, CSTA Standards Alignment Docs, Sample Lesson Plan, Supporting Neurodiversity
Supporting teachers, no matter their experience level
The CS Dept in a Box is perfect for both the first time CS teacher as well as the seasoned CS, Robotics, or Engineering teachers. We provide resources and lesson plans to help teachers implement CS while building teacher confidence through certifications & PD. Further to tailor-made to made CS teaching easy - student rostering integrated with Clever and Google, customizable lessons aligned with CSTA standards, interactive coding platform, CS instruction, assessment and progress tracking.
Supporting students, no matter their experience level
- Beginner Level Coding & Robotics: Access beginner level projects that can be used in CS classes, STEM classes, and more. 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.
Increase Equity in CS
Our self-paced learning design makes it easy for students to lead their own learning while teachers assume a facilitator role. Let us help you make CS & Robotics available across schools with limited burden on the teacher. At pi-top, we recognize that all learners are different and they have different needs. Therefore, we embrace neurodiversity by employing a strengths-based model to empower all learners, fostering confidence and success in education.
