While you’re kicking back this weekend, sipping some cold suds and soaking up the last rays of summer, remember that school is starting up again soon. It doesn’t matter if you’ve been out of academia for decades are about to start college or have a wee one about to commence second grade, we here at Wired have got all your gear needs covered.

First off we take four different (legal) study aids to task. Many have claimed that these herbal supplements can improve cognitive function. Our intrepid writer, Alexis Fitts, tried four different herbal remedies in our very, ahem, scientific tests.

You can read I Dream of Genius: Herbal Drugs Promise Big Neural Gains in its entirety at our reviews site.

We also take up another important academic activity, drinking beer! Science editor and noted brewski connoisseur, Betsy Mason pitted two kegerators head to head in a winner-take-all brouhaha.

She also built our very own DIY kegerator, Beer Robot. You know the legend. You follow him on twitter.  Now find out how he came to be.

Can’t get your fill of beer? Scope our gallery of crazy, custom pimped out kegerators too.

Then we also assembled gadgets perfect for kids entering grade school, teens in high school, and those about to embark on college:

Top Gear For Primary School Tykes

High School Gear For The Gossip Girl Set

The Best Gadgets For College Kids
