My Project
In this project, I am requesting FPV (First-Person View) drones, landing pads, and racing obstacles to create engaging, hands-on STEM experiences for my students. By using drones, students can dive into the world of aerodynamics, engineering, and robotics, exploring these concepts in an interactive and exciting way. They will not only learn the principles of safe drone operation but also develop essential skills in navigation and spatial awareness.
These drones will be used to teach problem-solving and critical thinking through challenging obstacle courses, building skills for the future.
Students will gain a real-world understanding of emerging technology, giving them a taste of careers in fields like engineering, aviation, and technology development. This project will help make STEM concepts come alive, encouraging curiosity, innovation, and hands-on learning that is both educational and memorable.
