These cookies are essential for proper site function. They include things like the language you prefer, the country your IP address is from (so you can view the correct version of the page), and whatever cookie preferences you choose here.
These cookies help us understand behavior on our website and are critical to help us see which of our advertising and marketing efforts are working.
We advertise on a variety of platforms including social media and internet search providers. These sorts of cookies and the information we share lets platforms match you with your social media or internet search account (we can't see that information, only the platform can). That's helpful because it allows the platform to indicate whether our ads resulted in purchases or not. Then we can optimize the way we serve ads so that we aren't wasting money on ineffective ads. The platform also isn't driving you crazy with completely irrelevant ads. This doesn't make you get any more ads, it just makes the ads more relevant to you.

Spintronics is a very interesting and fun puzzle/toy that’s very educational. As a 35 y/o man I am learning legitimate things about electricity and electronics that have already made certain concepts easier for me to wrap my mind around. The first day I got it I spent several hours going through the book of puzzles and coming up with lots of different ways to solve problems and make functioning mechanical circuits. The tactility of the toy is a very important part of what makes it so educationally inspiring, watching and touching the circuits I make really makes understanding more intuitive and less memorized.
All of the components are very satisfying to handle, great care clearly went into the engineering and production of them. They are not fragile, though they ought to be handled with care. I really cannot overemphasize the degree to which I enjoy and am comfortable handling the pieces. When I received mine one of the switches was slightly defective, I reached out to upper story and they got back to me within the hour. Nobody asked me for proof of the defect, and the replacement part was en route to me incredibly fast. Not only is this company interested in revolutionizing education but they are also committed to customer service.
In conclusion Spintronics is a fascinating thing that I have derived hours of mind stimulating fun from and will derive many many more.

Sorprendente
Es alucinante cómo un juego de puzles tenga esta trama, este ingenio, sea instructivo y divertido. Una gran presentación y acabado que invitan a ponerse a resolver problemas inmersos en la campaña de cada acto. Fantástico.

I like the title of Spintronics!
I feel like the components lend themselves for students to experiment building mechanical circuits.

Love the title!
The content is great. I have not had a chance to get back to it or to teach it yet, but will this fall. Thank you!
