Build the Future, One Structure at a Time
Through scaffolded lesson plans, build guides, and instructional videos, teachers can launch the STIIX Architecture Project with confidence — even if they don’t have a background in architecture. The modular components are durable and reusable, making them perfect for repeated student cycles and classroom makerspaces. As students test their structures, reflect on design choices, and revise, they experience a genuine engineering design cycle.
The Architecture Project also supports differentiated learning: students can follow guided challenges, or take creative license to express their own architectural style. Collaboration is built into the process, mirroring professional teamwork in real engineering firms.
Whether you’re running a STEM lab, an after-school club, or a project-based lesson sequence, this kit offers a powerful, standards-aligned way to engage students in meaningful, high-impact STEM work.
The STIIX Architecture Project gives students a role in urban development, challenging them to design buildings that are not just visually compelling—but structurally sound and cost-effective. Within the fictional town of STIIX-Ville, learners tackle the dual goals of allowed footprint and architectural value, asking themselves: What kind of building best suits this lot? How can I maximize usable space while managing material cost? What trade-offs must I make between height, stability, and aesthetics?
Bring structure and excitement to hands-on learning with STIIX-Ville — your digital hub for project guides, assessments, and student progress tracking.
