MIT grad student David Merrill demos Siftables -- cookie-sized, computerized tiles you can stack and shuffle in your hands. These future-toys can do math, play music, and talk to their friends, too. Is this the next thing in hands-on learning? David Merrill works on Siftables, tiny computer blocks that interact with each other to make networks (and music)

Often we search for meaningful ways to integrate digital technology in project based learning activities given to our students. We also would like our students to develop a thorough understanding of the concepts underlying the work - after all this is the purpose of the project. Giving students the opportunity to complete and present their project through a digital lens has one great advantage - student engagement. This in turn causes students to develop a more in depth understanding of concepts.

Good day Steve In 2000 I created my on flipped an open enrollment evening college statistics class using a free online programed statistics textbook plus unique excel statistics software for homework. The top 20% (about 5 students) learned much more with less work and spent much less time in class/lab. The middle 60% had much less math anxiety, learned something but not enough to be useful. The bottom 20 finished with probably did something for their self-esteem.
