In a district with low funding, the Merge Cubes will give the students the ability to see and interact with the concepts I am teaching. Concepts that I teach, such as cells, can be difficult for students to understand. Some students learn better when being able to see and turn the object, rather than a flat, two-dimensional image on paper. The Merge Cube creates a chance for the students to experience what they are learning about, rather than having to memorize something. Merge cubes, along with their free software, is able to be downloaded on the students cellphones and school laptops. This allows the students to interact with technology as well as the merge cube.
