Educators
EASY
No special training or maker lab required. Includes everything you need to get your classroom inventing right away.
REAL
Real parts, real science, real engineering. Recognizable materials allow kids to connect the parts with the world around them.
PROJECT-BASED LEARNING
Open-ended Challenges actively engage students in authentic learning experiences.
STEM, STEAM & THE STANDARDS
Each product relates to principles of science, technology, engineering, art, and math, with fun ways to meet NGSS and Common Core standards.

I use the Catalyst to bring STEM access to my students. Students have such a fear of failing — we so often give them very narrow parameters for success, and the Catalysts offer students a very broad definition of what success can look like.
We incorporate the Catalyst Kits into our unit on circuitry. Through their own process of tinkering, they are able to make meaning and develop a deeper sense of understanding.
