SAM Labs Steam & Coding Kits

Crack coding and STEAM lessons with SAM Labs!

SAM Labs is an innovative set of teacher-designed tools and resources that align with the UK curriculum. These include lesson packs, apps and connectable wireless electronic blocks that present your students with challenging educational exercises.

The tools connect both software and hardware with accompanying lesson plans spanning a range of subjects – making learning about coding accessible, experimental and interactive.

Students can use SAM Labs to design, write and debug programs using sequencing, selection and iteration techniques. They will also write algorithms and use the wireless blocks to control and simulate physical systems.

Our SAM Labs package is designed for Schools

We offer a range of SAM Labs Kits and products to suit your school’s needs and budget. Kits are overflowing with wireless blocks and accessories, each with their own unique function. The Bluetooth-enabled blocks range from buzzers to lights, motors and more…

The blocks connect to each other via the SAM Space or Blockly apps to perform a specific function. For example, connect a motor with a light sensor and the motor’s speed will vary according to the amount of light you shine on the sensor!

Using the SAM Space app – featuring visual, flow-based drag-and-drop coding – students can take the physical SAM blocks and drop them into a virtual ‘canvas’, then connect them together to create projects.

With the SAM Blockly app, students can programme systems and use their computational thinking and problem-solving skills to overcome any challenges they encounter along the way.
