“They love the 3D printers,” said Riann Offutt-Price, STEM teacher at Cheatham County School District in Tennessee. “They love to watch them. They like to see what we're printing, how long it's going to take. It’s pretty mind-blowing for them.”

Since the district introduced MimioSTEM solutions, learners have been immersed in innovative technologies that spark curiosity, foster creativity and bring science, technology, engineering, and math to life. As a result, student engagement and hands-on learning have reached new levels. 

In 2019, the El Paso, Texas community was shaken to its core by an unthinkable tragedy. A 15-year-old sophomore from Horizon High School, Javier Amir Rodriguez, was the youngest victim of a horrific mass shooting at an El Paso Walmart. It was a devastating loss for everyone at Clint Independent School District, including its Superintendent, Dr. Juan Martinez, who delivered an emotional address at his memorial. 

The shooting hadn’t taken place on a school campus, but it did bring that possibility to the forefront of many minds. As the community continued to heal, Dr. Martinez and his team worked to update and fortify the technology infrastructure throughout the district to streamline communication and build safer, more connected learning environments on every campus. 

Teaching is an art, a science and a continual learning process. The rapidly changing world of classroom technology has created new challenges for many educators, but it has also opened up opportunities for innovation and collaboration. 

In this episode of Unbox Innovation, Michelle Dawn Mooney welcomes Taylor-Ann Charles, a Training and Development Specialist at EOS Education by Boxlight, and Bernadette Moreno, an Education Mentor and Adult Learning Coordinator at Phoenix Union High School (PXU), to discuss a refreshing approach to teacher professional learning. Listen to hear about what’s making it so successful.
