Borrowable Technology for STEM Education

This guide features technology available at Andersen Library. While these resources support STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education, all Andersen Library patrons are encouraged to explore, try out, experiment, create and learn.

What Is It? Cubelets robot blocks come pre-programmed and ready to go right out of the box.

With the Cubelets Blockly app, you can program each robot block and see how it changes the behavior of your whole creation.
