What do you like best?

I love the interactions that the students can have with science. I am very happy that schools pay to engage students. I personally believe that everyone should have a proper time learning science, because it is a hands on type of learning. While not every teacher can do that, this can.

What do you dislike?

I don't like that it is so technology based. I like when students have the freedom to use technology or not. I do not like that it is not that accessible to districts who do not have the money to afford programs like this. I do not think they are spending their money correctly and it is hurting the students.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Try it! It's pretty good motivation if nothing else. They really try to teach and to give hands on experience to kids. It is nice to know that there is a company out there that focuses on teaching and not just money. However, this costs money.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We have hopefully solved the problem of bad teachers. I don't like when teachers do not try to engage their students, and this gives them an opportunity to learn.
