  Calling all teachers! Want to teach your students a bit more about STEM while having a hands-on experience? Think about setting up a field trip to one of our locations! There, students will be able to learn about the competition teams, what it takes to build a competition robot, and what other students their ages are currently learning at our summer camps and after-school programs. While you visit, students will be led by our instructors who will aid them in building their own robots that they will be able to take home with them! As students build their robots, they will learn about how robots operate from the smallest of gears, to how circuits work and how tools like screwdrivers are safely used. Our goal is to help inspire students to start learning STEM and jumpstart their critical thinking skills. Depending on the ages of the students, the questions asked by our Roboteer staff will vary in difficulty and depth of explanation. Email us your 2024-2025 planned date and time, we will set up an exciting adventure for your students! (less) ... Read more
