As a way to get more Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) into classrooms, the construction of a mobile workstation has began...the STEAM MACHINE. It began life as a laptop cart, designed to carry and charge up to 30 devices. This cart has seen some good times and bad, even surviving an attempted robbery. Once the cart was officially retired, our Tech Specialist (Jacob Bryant) found a new and exciting use for the old cart. With help from his father over the course of a couple days, the cart was given a new lease on life. New USB outlets, shelving, and storage containers were installed. The cart is now able to carry and store classroom sets of electrical circuits, Little Bits, paper circuits, Sphero Robots, and tools. With the help of some talented MS art students, the cart received a brand new paint job too. The STEAM MACHINE is almost ready to make it's debut in classrooms across ASFG. This cart will allow the Tech Specialist to bring STEAM curriculum into any classroom, with all the supplies and tools ready to go.
