Enhance the experience with the WhiteBox Learning standards-based, cloud-based Rover  STEM Software Application (available separately). This software lets students “connect the virtual to the physical” by engineering, programming, analyzing and simulating their designs virtually then building physical models to scale. Teams of 2–4 students are recommended. Most parts are reusable for future classes, and the Rover kit box can serve as chassis material. Foamboard (or kit box), heavy-duty scissors, wire cutter, wire striper (18 AWG), one-hole punch, straight-blade screwdriver, ruler, needle nose pliers and hot glue gun required but not included.
