Turntables to Teach STEM? ThinkLive! Engages Students with DJ Tech

Polsky - Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation @ The University of Chicago:

The DJ technology startup ThinkLive! is developing turntable labs to engage students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) – working closely with the University of Chicago to create a new curriculum around the platform.

The ThinkLive!Turntable Lab combines DJ equipment and an educational curriculum to expose kids to science, coding, and math concepts – with the goal of closing the STEM skills gap between under-resourced and affluent students, a divide which could cost the economy more than $2 trillion dollars in the next decade.
