Lego NXT robotics give students the tools to investigate "real world" applications of science and mathematics which they might not otherwise encounter in a K12 setting. One project could easily span content from computer science, physics, biology, and mathematics (just imagine trying to design a working C-3PO out of legos!) Our workshop will provide a cursory introduction to the Lego NXT robotics kits, guide participants through a number of sample classroom activities, and discuss the pedagogical strengths and weaknesses to incorporating robotics into your mathematics or science classroom. A number of "student experts" will be on-hand to answer practical questions and assist with the hands-on activities. |
