Have you borrowed from our CSER National Lending Library recently? Our free Digital Technologies kits provide great opportunities for students to explore, play and problem-solve with STEM within their own classrooms. Our Merge Cube Augmented Reality kits are a great example, allowing students to experience hands-on learning in an entirely new way with augmented reality technology.

Thank you to Stephanie Rudiger, a STEM teacher at Loxton North School, SA, who recently shared how she incorporated one of our versatile Merge Cube kits into her students' learning about the Solar System. Stephanie explained, "Our students loved researching how to use the merge cubes, rather than being shown. They worked in groups to watch videos from Merge and experimented with ideas they got from the video. They then used the resources and merge cubes to create their own models of the Solar System. The students loved being able to explore and then learn with new technology." - July 2024
