One-time
Support Mr. Thomas Dewey's classroom with a gift that fosters learning.
These programmable spherical robots will continue to enhance the STEM-rich classroom that I strive to create. Students will be programming, gathering data and graphing this data during labs. These labs will help them be college ready.
Robotics and automated equipment are becoming the new normal, this project will help students feel more comfortable with programming and using programmable tools. They will apply these tools to real problems in physics.
Imagine a physics class where students don't just go to the worksheet and get a procedure which tells them to go to the shelf and get the cart. Imagine a classroom where the student is asked to build a shock absorbing device which they will drop a super strong robot into and then read the data from the robots sensors to see how much shock the robot endured. This is not your fathers egg drop. This is a high tech smart egg drop!
You will be directly supporting the next generation to develop solving skills. Thank you in advance for your support!
