The vision of a traditional library turned Learning Commons is so exciting, and the addition of these six Dash robots will make all the difference. When each class of 15-20 students come to the Learning Commons, they will be grouped by twos or threes and given a fun challenge, like program your Dash robot to move around obstacles, up ramps, over bridges, and to a destination spot the size of a Post-It Note down the hallway. Students will need to measure, plan their route, work together, disagree, compromise, and execute a shared vision to program their Dash robot. Sounds a lot like being an adult on a daily basis with all that communication and compromise, right? These are good skills to have. Teaching students to problem solve, think through obstacles, and persevere is my goal, and these Dash robots will help my students achieve some very solid problem solving skills, strong thinking, and rewarding perseverance. I want to give students scenarios and issues that require them to rely on problem solving skills. My hope is to teach in the Library Commons without a textbook and make learning so fun that students don't even realizing they are learning. These Dash robots will have all the students engaged--and always in partnerships so they are communicating with one another... face to face! ...and then celebrating their shared successes. I hope to engage and excite every one of my students in their own learning process. To help with this mission, I would like to purchase a set of Dash robots. Students can work together to program, celebrate their successes, and rethink and redesign when things don't go "just right". Thank you for considering donating to my first DonorsChoose project. If you are able to support this project, please know these robots will not land on a shelf and collect dust. I know this is an expensive project request, but it will help every child who works with a Dash robot become better collaborators, better thinkers, and better communicators.
