And Now Back to Our Scheduled Program

Help me give my students the power to connect coding and robotics and give life to the future or technology. How else can we better learn about robotics than by playing with them with our own hands?

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Many plan their entire high-school experience around the idea that they will be applying for some of the most competitive universities out there. Even with their personal challenges that they experience day in and day out, they always keep their eyes on the prize. Growing up in a low-income community where opportunities appear to be dwindling every day, my students live by the credos, "Don't just find resources, but be resourceful!"

With the advances of technology in education, I as a teacher can now bring the "someday" into the "today." Access to opportunities to learn how to code AND to be able to see a robot creation actually move in real-time is invaluable to my students' learning experiences here in high school.

Coding and robotics is not in our current curriculum in any formal way, but I would like to better integrate it into my mathematics classes. These projects will have a variety of applications including: understanding coding algorithms, creating systems, and analyzing different aspects of the engineer design cycle by actually programming a robot to perform different tasks. Additionally, students will gain a better perspective on the differences between form and function.
