In a fifth-grade class at Redlands Unified School District in California, students sit in pairs, building LEGO® Education robots that hop. They're also coding, measuring and problem-solving. Building robots, sailboats and pulleys also helps students see how to apply their learning to real-world situations. Why Teachers ??

Education has many disruptors–3D Printing, AR and VR, 1:1 technology, STEM, and STEAM–but a recent and wildly popular one is robotics. These automated humanoid bots often interact with users, require critical thinking and problem-solving, and grab the imagination of students in ways that makes everyone want to learn.

I have been asked to return to teach summer enrichment classes on maker education for elementary-aged learners at a local school during the summer of 2016. Although I like the use of iPads and computers, I want elementary aged students to have to directly interact with materials. Robot Turtles Game. Read more at [link].
