Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

Participants will:

- Learn how to design learning experiences with the STEM mindset using robotics tools like Robo Wunderkind.
- Identify which computational thinking skills are engaged while problem solving using Robo Wunderkind.
- Learn how to connect robotics, coding, literacy, and STEM in various subject matters.
- Learn how to introduce robotics and coding across various disciplines.
- Learn how robotics tools can be used to enhance students' experiences in Dual Language Immersion Programs.

Outline

The presentation will be in a form of a playground, which will include a brief demo by the presenter, followed by a showcase of real-life case studies which relate to Literacy & Robo Wunderkind. The participants will be able to ask questions and interact with the presenter all along with the session. We may engage the audience by setting up a door prize to give away after the session.
