My students will use the We Do robotics to increase their ability to work as a team solving complex problems to real-world scenarios. These robotics kits will provide an early introduction to coding, which will help them develop this important skill for future training opportunities in STEM careers. My young engineers will develop the ability to create, code, and report their ideas to peers and other professionals with ease. Classroom engagement and student self-esteem will increase dramatically. Being able to collaborate and persevere through challenging problems should start at an early age and progress through the rest of their life.
