My Project

The requested robot coding system will revolutionize our students' learning by providing hands-on experience in programming and robotics. It will engage them in interactive tasks, enabling them to apply theoretical knowledge practically. This tangible learning approach fosters deeper understanding and retention of coding concepts, preparing them for future STEM pursuits.

Our primary goal for this project is to enhance STEM education by introducing a comprehensive robot coding system to our curriculum.

By integrating this technology, we aim to cultivate critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills among our students. Additionally, we seek to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical application, ensuring that our students are well-equipped for the demands of the digital age.

Our students are special because of their diverse backgrounds, interests, and potential. They possess a curiosity and eagerness to learn that drives them to explore new concepts and challenges. Despite any obstacles they may face, our students exhibit resilience and determination in pursuing their academic goals. With the right resources and opportunities, they have the capacity to excel and make significant contributions to the field of STEM and beyond.

Our school is in a rural area in Kentucky which currently has approximately 500 students. 100 percent of our students come from poverty and all receive free/reduced lunch.

We currently don't have any kind of robot coding system to help teach our students about coding and greatly appreciate any help you can provide.
