Una guida pratica su cosa contengono i kit di moduli elettronici Makeblock MakerSpace, come differiscono i kit numerati e quale si adatta meglio alla tua classe o laboratorio.
Quick answer
A MakerSpace electronic modules kit is a parts bundle, not a single project robot. The numbered kits split the same Makeblock ecosystem into different slices: Electronic Modules 1 centers on controller boards, Electronic Modules 2 on RJ25 modules, Electronic Modules 6 on power and battery parts, and Motor Modules 5 on stepper and brushless motors. Buy the kit whose parts list matches projects you already run, then add the other slices later.
Why these kits are organized by part type, not by project
Makeblock's Maker Education Solutions are built as a shared pool of mechanical and electronic parts, and the MakerSpace Kits exist so a school can stock that pool in pieces. The catalog describes them as designed for schools to create a makerspace, with parts that combine in different ways for a maker event or a robotics competition.
That structure matters when you buy. A project-based kit tells you what students will build. A module-based kit tells you what students will have available to build with, which is why two schools with the same student count can need very different kits.
How to read a kit contents list before you buy
The most common mistake is buying the largest-sounding kit and assuming it covers everything. The catalog entries list example components rather than a full manifest, so treat the listed parts as the kit's center of gravity. If your projects lean on motors, a kit built around power and batteries will not close that gap.
Check three things: which controller boards are included, which connection style the modules use, and whether the kit is weighted toward electronics or motion. Those three answers predict what students can build on day one.
When to buy one kit versus stacking several
A single kit makes sense when you are testing whether a makerspace program will run at all, or when one teacher is running one club. Stacking kits makes sense once multiple classes share the same parts pool, because a single kit's parts list becomes the bottleneck during a build day.
Stacking also changes how you store parts. If you buy overlapping kits, separate bins by part type rather than by kit, so students pulling a motor do not have to know which purchase order it came from.
Decision rules for choosing a MakerSpace kit
- Rule 1: Buy for the missing part, not the biggest number: Kit numbers are labels, not a difficulty ladder. Electronic Modules 1 is controller boards, Electronic Modules 2 is RJ25 modules, Electronic Modules 6 is power and battery parts, Motor Modules 5 is motors. Match the kit to the gap in your current parts pool. Checkpoint: if you cannot name the part type you are short on, you are not ready to choose a kit.
- Rule 2: Controllers first, modules second, power third: Students cannot use sensors or motors without a board to connect them to. Electronic Modules 1 supplies Auriga Me BaseBoard and Megapi Pro Me BaseBoard, so it is the natural first purchase for a new makerspace. Verdict: a new program should not open with a power or motor kit.
- Rule 3: Choose motors only when projects demand motion: Motor Modules 5 brings Stepper Motor-42, a brushless motor, and accessories. That is useful for precise or higher-performance builds, and unnecessary overhead for classes doing sensor and coding work. Checkpoint: if no current unit requires controlled movement, defer this kit.
- Rule 4: Treat the contents list as a center of gravity, not a full manifest: Catalog entries name example components rather than every part. Before ordering, confirm the specific parts your next unit needs are represented in the kit you are considering. Next step: list your next three units' required parts, then match kits to that list.
What the numbered kits actually contain
- MakerSpace Kits - Electronic Modules 1: MakerSpace Kits - Electronic Modules 1 includes Auriga Me BaseBoard, Megapi Pro Me BaseBoard, and additional electronic parts. This is the controller-heavy kit. If students need programmable brains to run motors, sensors, or competition builds, start here rather than with a power or motor kit.
- MakerSpace Kits - Electronic Modules 2: MakerSpace Kits - Electronic Modules 2 includes multiple electronic modules with RJ25 connections. RJ25 modules are the plug-in layer of the Makeblock ecosystem. Choose this kit when students already have a controller and need sensors and modules to attach to it.
- MakerSpace Kits -Electronic Modules 6: MakerSpace Kits - Electronic Modules 6 includes electronic components such as power and battery parts. Power and battery parts are the least exciting purchase and the most common reason a build day stalls. Buy this when your existing kits run out of power hardware, not as a first kit.
- MakerSpace Kits - Motor Modules 5: MakerSpace Kits - Motor Modules 5 includes Stepper Motor-42, a brushless motor, and accessories. This is the motion kit. It suits advanced or competition-oriented builds where precise movement or higher-performance motors matter, and it pairs with a controller kit rather than replacing one.
Who these kits fit
Best for
- Schools building a shared makerspace parts pool across multiple classes
- Teachers who already know which part type their projects are short on
- Programs running maker events or robotics competitions that reuse the same parts
- Buyers who want to expand an existing Makeblock setup piece by piece
Not for
- First-time buyers who want one box with a single finished project inside
- Parents looking for a self-contained beginner coding toy for one child
- Anyone who needs a full parts manifest confirmed before ordering
- Buyers who cannot yet name the specific part type they are missing
