Active Robots - Robot Kits and Educational Robotics Resources BreakoutEDU On A Budget I've been a fan of BreakoutEDU for going on two years now, using it as a professional development tool both in and outside of my district. I love it for introducing new content, reviewing content that needs additional reinforcement and for showing educators that learning doesn't have to be boring. Plus, as this video (which I first learned about from Tom Mullaney, who creates amazing digital BreakoutEDU experiences for his own students) illustrates: in school we tend to focus on finding right answers, whereas BreakoutEDU focuses on asking the right questions. So when it comes to asking the right questions, and then allowing learners to problem solve, collaborate, fail, create cognitive connections and have fun while doing it, I'm a fan of both the digital and physical versions of BreakoutEDU. What's more, when I create PD, I always use both: starting learners off with a digital experience that, once solved, will lead them to the treasures inside the physical box.
Universal Real-time Behavior Interface (URBI) My Breakout EDU Obsession I am absolutely, positively obsessed with Breakout EDU! Although I’d heard about this and briefly looked into Breakout EDU a few months ago, a fire was lit within me when I played at the MiniLACUE conference a few weeks ago. Immediately upon playing my first game, I knew this was something I HAD to do with my students. I couldn’t wait the 3-4 weeks that it was going to take if I ordered a box through Breakout, so thankfully they have an open source kit and I have a handyman husband. Within a few days, I had acquired my box and become obsessed with locks. Being the crazy person that I am, I couldn’t just use an already developed game…I had to create my own. The teachers broke into the box with almost 20 minutes to spare! Even though my 8th graders didn’t have time to finish, they had a BLAST trying to break into the box! Of the fourteen 6th grade classes that played last week, only one was able to break into the box. Breakout EDU is so engaging.
