Platform for classes in Robotics & STEM

Aleks, I just have to tell you. We just went to our first competition. Our high score on robotics was 335 and we got first place! But here is the even better part. We won the Champions award. We came in first place over the 24 teams that were there! Thank you for teaching me about robotics!

The kids learned how to built box robot through your website with another coach. They did struggle with attachment using dogear gears. They couldn't reliably manage the attachment. This last season we liked the concept of box robot and it pros that we created one and customized the attachment to ensure we had vertical and rotational movement for gerhart mission. The idea of box robots is great. Tips and tricks of using dogears successfully will be very helpful for this typically 10-12 year olds.

I love using FLLCasts, it helps me be a better instructor. Thanks for all your support and helping our kids achieve their goals.

Summer STEM and Extreme Robotics Bootcamps were so fun! It looks like our group is growing in our small rural upstate NY village. All through grants and community support!

I work hard writing grants to fund this awesome program. This year we had 22 kids competing on 2 FLL Jr. And 1 FLL. Along with our after school program and outreach program, we have introduced robotics to easily 100 youth this year alone. I would love to allow all interested kids to participate, but funding is always the draw back. This year our oldest team, most aging out, have youth from 3 counties. We are adding another FLL team with the older kids being mentors. Many schools do not offer this program. Very sad!

They also build the robotic arm so the team could provide demonstrations, and let others experience the thrill at our season kick off.

Thanks for your commitment to teaching, you definitely make me a better coach!

So I used a couple of your Robot a Day lessons with a group of kids at my summer camp... even though not all of them were 100% ready with programming samples. Other kids chose to build from the Lego website. Your robot building instructions were much easier for the kids to complete than Lego website ones, and got them driving much sooner. Then I challenged them to test and modify the robot to find ways to improve it. The students were mostly entering 4th and 5th grade. They really enjoyed the different choices for robots to build. The designs were simple enough for them to assemble in one session and then they were easy to modify. Thank you and I look forward to you continuing to offer more lessons where kids can learn basic engineering principles.
