Robotics for Socially Responsible Engineers

Help me give my students a robotic starter kit to learn ethical engineering!

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 Students

Our magnet school emphasizes the respect of self and others. Our pedagogy includes discipline and high expectations, as well as activism and compassion. About 60% of our students are African-American, alongside Latino and Asian children. This mix offers unlimited opportunities to learn tolerance and teamwork, while discovering new perspectives.

The kids know they will be agents of change and follow our school motto, "Be the change you want to see in the world." However, our school and our families can't afford the resources we need to support academic knowledge and significantly improve student achievement.

My Project

Thanks to your kind contribution, a team of bright fifth graders would receive a robotic starter kit to learn the basics of engineering and improve their collaboration skills. They first following directions, but after a while, they discover how to improve the structure of their initial robot. Students participate to five VEX IQ competitions and, with a little luck, can make it to an international meeting.

The difference between the robotic teams of our social justice magnet and teams from other schools is ethics.

Our kids learn the environmental and social issues that will challenge their adult life. We train them to think from different perspectives and find solutions that wouldn't hurt anyone. As you can tell, your generous donation would definitely make a difference!
