Cubelets are magnetic blocks for children age 4+ that can be snapped together to make an endless variety of robots with no programming and no wires. Each Cubelet has a tiny computer inside of it and is a robot in its own right. When you put Cubelets together, you're actually making a robot out of several smaller robots. Each Cubelet communicates with its neighbors so you know that if two blocks are next to each other, they're talking. Sense Cubelets act like our eyes and ears. Action Cubelets act as outputs. They do things like make noise, spin, drive or shine a light.
3D printers, robotics, programming, wearable computing, and Arduino capture the imaginations of today's student.

The time is now to place invention and creativity ahead of worksheets and testing.
Nuclear power produces almost a fifth of the world's electricity. Supporters say it's safe, cheap and - best of all - the answer to global warming. Critics say it's not safe or cheap, and it won't really help with the global warming problem. So who's right? This program presents the arguments for and against, with relevant background information.
This program covers a number of advanced topics. Understand the use of water to vary reactor power, as well as different methods of mining uranium, and witness a specific example of a fission reaction.
