Learning Blade Statistics

I am going to get started with Haiti Orphanage, I am working on designing Engineering for Disasters project. I always have to find my own resources, but this is one stop shopping for me and will save so much time. I love that I can give my 8th graders a ton of autonomy too for their final projects, they can use Learning Blade to do the research instead of me doing all the searching. Learning Blade is going to save me a ton of time.

Learning Blade presents such a unique opportunity for me to collaborate with other teachers in the building, and create a lasting impact even when the students are not in my class anymore.

I love all of this. This is perfect for all of my content area teachers and the support the Learning Blade team has given me is amazing. We have 3D printers ready and waiting!

Tanya Krieg

Northwestern Middle School, Poplar, Wisconsin

As I look through the Learning Blade curriculum, it’s great because I can think of a student for every single mission… like, a particular student that would really like it. The area where we live is super heavy in medicine and manufacturing and so a lot of kids are coming from families of doctors and manufacturing workers.

Learning Blade has impacted my students allowing them to gain valuable knowledge on potential STEM careers. I like the wide variety of topics provided as they allow all students to find something they are interested in.
