There are several automotive industries near our small, rural town. Students participating in robotics education have the opportunity to go straight into the workforce using the knowledge gained from robotics. Robotics is the most challenging and engaging form of learning I have ever witnessed as a teacher. My students design, build, and code a robot made of metal parts. They take their robot to local competitions to participate in various challenges. After the competitions, my students work hard to make changes to their robot to make it even better.
