Remote Teaching

Through inspiration and collaboration, the BirdBrain Team developed a number of ways to engage students with creative robotics via a remote or hybrid learning environment. Consider the following adaptations and free tools for your classroom.

Accessibility

Accessibility guidance can be incredibly important to student success with new learning tools. Guidance for BirdBrain’s tools currently includes information regarding blindness and visual impairment.
