Project-based learning for every learning environment
Teq’s family of “Block” products are technology-centric, do-anywhere activities that engage students in every aspect of the learning process.
Explore our solutions for immersive, hands-on learning.
From project-based learning, to tutorial videos and at-home lessons and activities, our solutions range from simple to robust. There’s a Block for every learning situation — and every learning environment.
What do all our products have in common? They’re all about providing immersive learning experiences for students, no matter where they are learning from. Because students learn best when they are active participants in their learning, especially when it comes to STEM subjects.

Immersive Learning
Robust PBL activities that guide students through the journey of the Engineering Design Process.
iBlocks are similar to sBlocks, but they take an sBlocks’ Scope and Sequence and flesh it out into an extended and robust PBL solution. An iBlock (or instructional block) is customizable to your school/district needs, but it’s always driven by the Engineering Design Process.
An iBlock engages students as they design and build towards a tangible outcome — the capstone project that pulls together all of their research, planning, and testing into a finished product.

Lesson Activities
Tie it all together with Tech-tivities, our lesson activity examples.
It’s all connected. Whether you start with a Tech-tivity and learn from there, or start with a course on OTIS for educators and grab an associated lesson resource, there is always a next step.
Tech-tivities are walkthroughs of lesson activity examples. Each Tech-tivity is associated with a specific OTIS course, explains all the teacher technology skills needed, and includes a free downloadable lesson activity plan.
