Build 21st century skills with STEM activities

Engage students in real-world investigations and problem solving, and build enthusiasm for innovation. Provide teachers with online activities and lessons that enable students to develop their skills as they make models, observe, reflect, redesign, record and present their findings.

Create teamwork and communication

Give teachers guidelines to help students learn to collaborate with the "Buddy Building" system. The online curriculum dovetails with hands-on LEGO Education kits, helping students to first work independently and then collaboratively to complete projects.

Support effective teaching

Teacher notes in each activity provide all the information to prepare and facilitate every lesson. Learning.com's digital learning environment gives teachers the classroom management tools to quickly and efficiently assign curriculum, track student progress, offer feedback and support, and truly individualize instruction.

Principle models

Students experience the mechanical and structural principles normally hidden away inside everyday machines and structures. They get hands-on experience with easy-to-build models for simple machines, mechanisms and structures. The clear, straight-forward presentation provides a pathway forstudents to understand and apply mechanical and structural principals to their own models.

Investigation activities

Investigation Activities
Students use and explore their models with minimal teacher assistance in activities that include a focused approach and easy-to-read pictorial guides. Students work in pairs, predict and test their predictions at least three times, then record their data. Next, they design and draw a device to apply the concepts they have just explored.

Problem-solving activities

Investigation Activities
These activities feature real-life settings with needs that cannot be solved in just one way. Students get problem descriptions and a design brief – but only teachers have descriptions of how to progress – providing students with an open-ended experience that builds their innovation and creativity skills. All the activities are realistic, and students test and integrate more than one principle at a time as they progress.
