We were able to meet with Dr. Azi Jamalian to learn more about littleBits – building blocks that blink, beep, and teach. The idea behind littleBits is to get tech in the hands of children. They have components like power, switches, and devices (such as fans or lights) that are color coded for easy recognition and each component has magnets that allow them to connect with ease. littleBits, and the STEM/STEAM principles they were based on, were discussed by the founder, Ayah Bdeir, in a TED talk in 2012 where she talked about how LEGOs made building beautiful structures possible for anyone and how she wants littleBits to make electronics possible for anyone.
