UKIT Intermediate

SKU: W45235

Description

Designed and tailored to Next Generation Science Standards, our UKIT Intermediate and accompanying curriculum seamlessly incorporate STEM+C instruction into elementary or middle school classrooms.

The UKIT Intermediate contains everything teachers need to deepen students’ interest in STEM, computer science, and robotics topics, including:

  • A comprehensive building kit – no additional pieces required.
  • Supplemental curriculum integrating the standards, concepts, and skills students need to be successful in school and beyond.
  • Access to UBTECH Education’s proprietary app, which lets students build, code, and animate their robotics projects.

HOW ARE UKITS DIFFERENT?

Our tech is for real

UKITs are designed to support multiple projects that increase in complexity as the learning progresses, inviting students to build, code, and experiment with their own creations.

  • Durable kit elements ensure long-lasting usability.
  • Precise servos enable humanlike movement.
  • The tech was founded on UBTECH’s robotics and Artificial Intelligence industry experience and research base.

High-quality curriculum fills gaps in traditional science courses

Based on a solid foundation of standards and coherence, our NGSS-aligned curriculum builds student and teacher confidence, inspires curiosity, and flexes to engage all learners.

Students leverage advanced science and mathematics concepts to solve real-world problems, learning how technology can enhance the critical and computational thinking process.
