My robotics course will use the Cyber:bot robot and bring to life a classroom of hands on learning, including learning a new programming language (Python), new STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) course, and we will be considering competitions in the area. The Cyber:bots are designed from Parallax company, and are moderately priced. NICERC has the curriculum ready to have my students learning from Day 1. My students will learn the ingenuity process to meet challenges they may face in competition. My students will have an advantage in the 21st Century by coding a new language, and will understand the rigor of Computer Science terms and concepts. Most of my students are preparing for their futures by taking the programming classes I offer.
