MaxIQ Space STEM Program

What does this entail?
MaxIQ Space has customised their international K-12 Space STEM program specifically for the USA, South Africa, and a number of private sector sponsors. Delivery includes virtual teacher and facilitator training, curriculum and challenges relating STEM, space and sustainability, modular electronics kits, workshops and support sessions. All the experiments and exercises build up to a NASA high altitude balloon launch and future missions to the International Space Station.

Modular electronics kits:
Schools and groups get to keep with kits as they can be fully re-used. These kits are IoT enabled, connect to a data dashboard, and support topics such as data science, coding, big data, and internet of things.
Each group will receive:

• Bundle of ten Space STEM kits 
• Two advanced add-on kits with additional sensors
• TinyGS kit to build a ground station to retrieve satellite data
• 3D Smart Rocket project kit and participation 
• Free participation in all MaxIQ Space World Space Week challenges
• MK04 kit to participate in associated missions (Example - NASA HAB)

These kits easily support classes of thirty students, and can be re-used across STEM subjects.
