A STEM classroom approaches instruction in science, technology, engineering and mathematics; not as separate disciplines, but through an integrated and applied approach with real world application.
Wixie is the perfect digital canvas for students in STEM classrooms. Students can use Wixie to combine text, images, and voice narration to share design ideas, explain their thinking, and share real world solutions.
Students complete the engineering or design thinking process and present their ideas and process.
Students create a presentation or other materials to educate people about a real world problem.
Students create a public service announcement to educate people about an issue they are passionate about.
Students create an infographic to share knowledge and data about an issue or topic they are studying.
Students interview animals to demonstrate knowledge of animal characteristics, diet, and more.
Having students showcase their ideas using comics to make learning relevant and fun!
