Kickstart STEM learning with SPIKE Prime
SPIKE Prime combines curriculum-aligned STEM lessons with LEGO bricks, a programmable multi-port Hub, and Scratch-based and Python coding languages. It allows pupils to explore topics such as the design process and data science, setting the foundation for learning about real-world technologies like machine learning and artificial intelligence.
Flexible built-in scaffolding and competency-based professional development opportunities make it easy for teachers to get started and move from one unit to the next.
SPIKE Prime helps all pupils develop effective problem-solving skills. With SPIKE Prime, pupils think critically, analyse data and practise computational thinking by decomposing problems into smaller parts. Pupils are therefore able to prototype creative solutions for complex problems with real-world relevance
SPIKE Prime motivates pupils to try, learn and try again. To build, unbuild and rebuild. To create prototypes of innovative solutions to real-world problems in a safe environment where they learn and develop resilience through meaningful failures, making them better able to take on the challenges of an ever-changing future.
From engaging lessons covering topics like the practical applications of weather data to generating real-world data using movement, SPIKE Prime offers pupils many opportunities to explore data science.
