Session E-4: Teach Students Robotics!, Pat Patankar

Professional Learning Day

In this session, we will discuss how to introduce your students to Robotics. We will talk about the programing environment, the hardware that is required, and the resources you'll need to get your program up and running. We will discuss how to acquire them. A number of them are free - and others can be obtained by the students themselves (in fact they may already have what they'll need!).
