Tracks: Future of EdTech Educator

When students are immersed in STEM learning and understand how it affects their daily lives and futures, that's when they really engage. Robotics offer a great tool for building initial STEM interest and sustaining enthusiasm as students are constantly challenged to solve real-world problems that require critical thinking, collaboration and innovation. Join us for a hands-on workshop that highlights how to use the TETRIX® PRIME Building System to create a STEM-centric, Project Based Learning environment that meets middle school Common Core and Next Gen Science Standards. Engineered to be simple and intuitive, the PRIME Building System and all-new Pulse Controller enable robotic creations to come to life quickly and easily, meaning students can focus more on problem-solving and applying their STEM knowledge. Complete with tips and tricks for classroom implementation, this workshop teaches you how to take STEM learning through robotics and coding to the next level.
