In-School Field Trips
Description: Meet Edison! This programmable robot is great for multiple grade levels. Students will build, code & explore robotic engineering in a dynamic, discovery-based process. Student groups will code their Edison robots to carry out challenges and achieve various outcomes, using their creativity (and building blocks!) to create their own Edison robotic monsters. Lower grades use screen-free coding techniques with their Edison robots, while higher grades incorporate Edison programming languages using a computer. These robots will amaze your students and spark their curiosity!
Format: Our experienced presenters deliver curriculum-based field trips right in your classroom.
