About this specialization
Robotics for kids allows children to learn STEM concepts in a hands-on environment. They learn how to program, design, and make their own robots. Robotics offers an educational tool for kids to think out of the box. Many times kids have ideas of what they dream to create. Robotics makes those dreams come true.
Participants
- Kids between the ages of 6 – 13 years
- Robotics teachers of Primary and Secondary School
Benefits
- Build Confidence
- Encourage Perseverance
- Accept Criticism
- Improves Engagement
- Improves Programming Skills
- Preparing for the future
