Learning STEM with LEGOs

The Research Center for Educational Technology staff has adopted the LEGO WeDo Robotics system to help promote elementary content standards for science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) learning. The project helps support local K-5 grade teachers to design curriculum that utilizes the robotics system to introduce children to the engineering design process. The set contains blocks, working motors and sensors, and a computer software program to run constructed models, which can range from dancing birds to a soccer goal kicker.

RCET will run a LEGO WeDo camp this summer. To learn more about this camp and other camps for elementary students, contact Mary Stith at 330-672-5995.
