Puzzlets are a Bluetooth accessory for your computer that allows students to play games related to coding, math, or color theory. The Puzzlets include interactive games that will teach students basic programming, math, and art skills. The Puzzlets are a great way to introduce visual learning and critical thinking skills to students. By way of using games, the Puzzlet kit really allows students to explore creativity and learn via a hands-on approach.
Released in 2014, Puzzlets (Called Ludos at the time) gave educators (and parents) a way to build all sorts of skill (basic programming, math, colors, etc.) via the use of video games, utilizing a hands on approach.
