Lego® Education SPIKE™ Prime Set

The LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Prime Set is the go-to STEAM learning tool for secondary school students. SPIKE Prime combines standards-aligned STEAM lessons with LEGO bricks, a programmable multi-port Hub, and Scratch-based and Python coding languages. From easy-entry lessons to advanced experiences, students of all learning levels build their confidence and resilience along with the 21st-century skills that are vital to their future success. The heart of the SPIKE Prime Set is the programmable Hub. This advanced yet simple-to-use brick-shaped device features 6 input/output Ports, 5x5 Light Matrix, Bluetooth connectivity, a speaker, 6-axis gyro, and a Rechargeable Battery. The SPIKE Prime Set also includes highly accurate motors and sensors that, together with a large variety of colorful LEGO building elements, let students design and build creative prototypes and innovative solutions. The many attachment points on the Hub, motors, and sensors, combined with large building elements, mean that students spend less time building and more time learning. The durable storage box and 2 sorting trays keep setup and cleanup time to a minimum, and the smaller trays are ideal for when desk space is limited. The LEGO® Education SPIKE™ App offers a simple introduction to programming with intuitive word-block coding based on Scratch. As students build their skills, they can explore text-based coding with Python to bring their creations to life. In addition to Getting Started material, the SPIKE App comes with 5 unit plans of standards-aligned STEAM content focusing on data science, engineering, and computer science. Designed for students in secondary school, and optimized for 45-minute lessons, these units accelerate STEAM learning by consistently engaging students in critical thinking to solve complex problems. SPIKE Prime is supported by a comprehensive competency-based professional development program that equips teachers with the skills and knowledge they need to facilitate meaningful STEAM learning experiences that empower their students to succeed.
