A solid STEAM education sets students up for more job opportunities at higher salaries.

However, many students are not engaged but the typical STEM curriculum, leaving educators frustrated and concerned for their students' futures. We know that it doesn't have to be this way.

 

…To PLAY!

At Stratos we see a future win which all types of students can play, learn and be prepared for what's the come.

That's why we developed the AirGlow instrument - imagine a light saber crossed with a ukulele! When combined with a specifically designed curriculum, AirGlow enables the teaching of STEAM concepts through music, lights, motion, and creativity.

 
“I could tell that some of our curriculum was just not working as well as we’d hoped. I was amazed when students who’d all but given up, picked up an AirGlow and seemed to come alive as they learned to play.”
— High School Teacher
