Tech & Learning is an award-winning independent publisher that has established themselves as the premier source for information regarding trends in educational technology.
Our efforts to help educators bring STEAM to their schools have been recognized by the judges of Tech & Learning’s Award of Excellence program. TinkRworks was named one of the “Best Primary Tools for Back to School” of 2021 for our comprehensive STEAM curriculum and engaging project kits.
“Our judges chose the winning products for their versatility, compatibility, value, and ability to help schools solve challenges and support continuous instruction,” says Tech & Learning Group Publisher and Brand Director Christine Weiser.
At TinkRworks, we provide schools with everything they need to seamlessly integrate STEAM into their K-8 classrooms.
With projects like our TinkRbot and Weather Station, students develop skills in coding and engineering by programming sensors and minicomputers to accomplish a goal. As students advance through our standards-aligned curriculum, the challenges they are presented with increase in difficulty—allowing them to build on their skills and knowledge and become young innovators.
Paired with exceptional professional development, TinkRworks inspires educators, too. “This STEAM curriculum provider offers a great way to purchase a classroom-based STEAM solution,” said one of the judges. “They align to the core curriculum standards and have developed age- and grade-level appropriate lessons.
“I think having the freedom to explore project-based learning through TinkRworks helps ease the students in and make them more comfortable with STEAM-based exploration. That’s what makes the difference—it’s a continuous process of trial and error.”
–Katey Goll, teacher at St. Isaac Jogues School
