For Grades 4 and Up

Due to its versatility across multiple disciplines and incredible ease-of-use, Databot is appropriate for students as young as 4th grade for science and math explorations or STEM programs looking for physical computing attributes to make coding lessons more engaging.  Using MicroBlocks® students as young as 4th grade can begin coding and learning advanced coding and computational thinking concepts.  High school and technical students can even turn Databot into an edge computing device for advanced Machine Learning applications.  One device – incredibly easy to use for science and math, incredibly versatile and powerful for STEM topics.  Worried about dropping it?  Have no fear – databot is tough-as-nails yet approachable for students, young and old alike, to handle it and use it for daily explorations.

Settings

databot is an incredibly versatile tool and fits everywhere  – in-person, hybrid, or remote! Since its debut in 2019 databot has been used in nearly every learning setting from home users to CTE programs launching it on weather balloons.

• Science Education: Elementary, Middle School, High School, and in-home learning.
• Math Classrooms: Bring your math concepts to life with live sensor data!
• CTE: Computer Science, Physical Computing, Data Science, AI, Machine Learning
• Engineering: Design Challenges and Integrations with Robotics programs.
• Informal Learning: Summer Camps, After-school programs, Science Centers
• Homeschool: Databot is an extraordinary home-learning tool for math, science, coding and technology, and data fluency.

One Connected Ecosystem

No proprietary software that locks educators into a single workflow, Databot embraces an ecosystem of trusted educational tools.  Using the same live sensor data throughout their learning journey, students move naturally between these various tools.

Vizeey (IOS/Android/Chromebooks)

Vizeey is an easy-to-use tool for exploring live sensor data with Databot. Simply connect your Databot over Bluetooth and start collecting, graphing, and investigating real-world measurements in seconds. Databot lessons include QR codes that open pre-configured Vizeey experiments, so students can jump straight into the activity.

For educators, Vizeey removes the setup and technical friction from hands-on data collection. Experiments are ready to go, giving you more time to guide inquiry, encourage discussion, and focus on creating an engaging, effective learning experience.

CODAP

CODAP is a powerful, browser-based tool for exploring, visualizing, and making sense of real-world data with Databot. Simply connect your Databot, collect live sensor data, and bring it into CODAP to create graphs, compare variables, identify patterns, and investigate relationships.

For educators, CODAP gives students an intuitive way to move beyond simply collecting measurements and start thinking like data scientists. Databot activities help structure the investigation, so you can focus on guiding discussion, asking great questions, and helping students discover the story hidden inside their data.

MicroBlocks

MicroBlocks is a fun, approachable coding environment that lets students program Databot and see their code come to life in the real world. Using simple block-based programming, students can read live sensor data, create interactive projects, control outputs, and build experiments that connect coding with science, engineering, and physical computing.

For educators, MicroBlocks makes it easy to introduce programming without a steep learning curve. Students can start experimenting quickly, while Databot activities provide a clear path for combining coding, data, and hands-on STEM exploration in meaningful, engaging ways.

Other Options

There are options for the Arduino IDE, MicroPython, Excel, and also copy and paste into Desmos for educators who use these tools
