The TeacherGeek STEM Bins contain all the
components necessary for an entire class to complete
multiple activities in the area of your choice, Mechanisms, Fluid
Power, Wind Energy or Innovation. Application of science concepts with our
educational and innovative activities provides course content reinforcement
in a fun and meaningful way.
The TeacherGeek Mechanical STEM Bin was created to
encourage and inspire experimentation with mechanical systems. Included are all
the components to build 20 Rubber Band Racers / Advanced Rubber Band Racers, 20
Flag Wavers and 20 Ping Pong Ball Launchers. Additional TeacherGeek
innovation components are included in the bin for reengineering and new creative
designs. Starter ideas for innovating with additional parts include
experimenting with gear and pulley ratios, adding motor power or reengineering
your builds for different outcomes.
The TeacherGeek Fluid Power Stem Bin was created to
encourage and inspire experimentation with fluid powered systems. Included are
all the components to build 20 Hydraulic Arms, 20 Hydraulic Pet Racers and 20
Hydraulic Lifts .Additional TeacherGeek Innovation components are included in
the bin for reengineering and new creative designs. Starter ideas for innovation
include designing alternative grippers, enhancing pet movement, varying the lift
design and/or experimenting with gear ratios
The TeacherGeek Energy STEM Bin was created to
encourage and inspire experimentation with wind powered energy systems. Included
are all the components to build 20 Geared Wind Turbines, 20 Mini Wind Turbines,
20 Wind Pumps and 20 Wind Lifts. Additional TeacherGeek Innovation components
are included in the bin for reengineering and new creative designs. Starter
ideas for innovation include experimenting with blade designs and
configurations, alternative gear designs and/or wrapping stator wire to change
electrical output. Consider designing a dual action water pump to increase
efficiency.
*Please
Note*
The Geared Wind
Turbine and the Wind Pump require a stand.
TeacherGeek offers either the Bench or Wind Turbine Stand. These
both allow for quick mount and change out of our gear box
turbines which is ideal in a classroom. It can be tilted or reconfigured
for vertical and horizontal turbine orientation.
TheTeacherGeek Innovation STEM Bin was designed for
just that…to innovate, inspire and experiment with mechanical, energy,
electrical and fluid hydraulic systems. This bin includes the components to
build 20 Advanced Rubber Band Racers, 20 Wind Pumps, 20 Hydraulic Arms and a 20
pack Catch the Bug Activity . Additional TeacherGeek components are included in
the bin for redesign, reengineering and “build it, dream it” innovation. Starter
ideas for innovation might be adding motorized power to the Rubber Band Racer,
follow the guide from the hand crank to the wind powered hydraulic water pump.
designing a track/path for your bug or redesigning the arm and gripper
functions.
