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.

CoSN tells school districts to plan for adoption before they buy new tech

CoSN tells school districts to plan for adoption before they buy new tech

CoSN's 2026 Blaschke Report and companion toolkit give K-12 districts a plan for technology change. Its main point is timing. Districts should define the problem, the success measure and staff workload before procurement, then run rollouts through change champions and a council that reviews significant technology changes.

  • 01CoSN’s toolkit pushes planning before procurement: define the problem, affected groups, timeline, and success measures, and account for competing initiatives and implementation fatigue.
  • 02The toolkit urges leaders to account for competing initiatives and implementation fatigue before procurement or a districtwide rollout.
  • 03After launch, districts should track adoption indicators, review feedback and help requests, keep refresher training going, and conduct a post-implementation review.

Copyleaks says Classroom reach spans most K-12 and higher ed

Copyleaks says Classroom reach spans most K-12 and higher ed

Copyleaks says its Classroom integration reaches most K-12 and higher ed LMS platforms. Copyleaks says Instructure recently named it a top-tier strategic sales partner, and it describes a partnership with D2L Brightspace that broadens access for colleges and universities. For schools, key choices include billing on the LMS invoice and AI Sensitivity settings that align thresholds with policy.

  • 01When nearly nine in ten students use AI for schoolwork, the sensitivity threshold a school sets in Copyleaks works as its AI policy, written in software.
  • 02Copyleaks says the integration brings it to learning management systems used by approximately 80% of the K-12 market and 95% of higher education institutions. That is the ceiling on who could turn it on, not a count of paying schools.
  • 03Before scanning against Copyleaks' Shared Data Hub, institutions decide whether student papers join a pool shared with other institutions. The API can limit comparisons to the school's own submissions and permanently purge documents.
