A Glimpse into the Creation of the Artifacts Kits

One of the most exciting aspects of the Artifacts Kits is the wealth of sources that were used to create them. The Boxlight team did not simply rely on generic museum artifacts. Instead, they embarked on an adventure that extended past the boundaries of classroom walls and leading museums, into the heart of different cultures.

3D Scanning Technology: Bridging Past and Present

Among the captivating elements of the Artifacts Kits is the 3D scanning of artifacts. One standout example of this feature is the Cycladic Bull, an artifact discovered in Greece. Using 3D scanning technology, a physical artifact was faithfully replicated for students to understand better its historical significance.

Breathing Life into History

What makes the Artifacts Kits so transformative is the immersive experience they offer. Rather than merely reading about different periods in history, students can now explore them interactively, providing a richer and more engaging learning experience.
