Welcome to Sphero’s calendar of virtual events for ISTE 2020 Live! We hope you plan to join us in our virtual booth this year.
We have exciting products, a brand new global competition, and blended learning resources we’re excited to share in 2020. Sphero recently welcomed littleBits into the fold to offer a more robust play-based STEAM learning experience for educators and their students. Combined, these solutions continue to transform the way kids learn so they can excel and grow up to be tomorrow’s creators, inventors and changemakers.
We understand that teaching and learning looks different this school year and we’re here to help. We want to support our community with access to quality educational content and resources whether you’re just getting started with Sphero, or looking to continue the fun in the classroom and beyond.
Below are our virtual sessions by day, time and topic. All times are in PST, so please plan accordingly. We’ll “see” you there!
Please note: this is a living, changing list of events so check back here and on our social media channels for more information.
