Why should I teach with robots?
It isn't our place to tell you what to teach. However, robots are fun! They help students engage with material in hands on ways. Plus, building robots provides play-driven learning opportunities that explore design, engineering, and emergent behavior in complex systems.

Why are educational robots a great teaching tool?
There are lots of educational tools that are engaging, and there are some that teach real world lessons like design thinking, complexity, systems thinking, perseverance, project-based learning and collaboration. But robotics is unparalleled in combining all of these educational possibilities.

How can robots help with my STEM initiatives?
Teaching STEM lessons with robots gives students a reason to apply knowledge they've already learned, to verbalize it, and to put into practice new vocabulary and literacy skills classroom teachers have worked to impart to their classes.

What other magic comes from educational robotics?
Educators understand that different people learn in their own ways. Consider auditory learners, kinesthetic learners, visual learners, read/write learners and that most people possess traits from a variety of learning styles. The diversity of how we can interact with robots offers a great bridge to connect all learning types. Educational robots create an incredibly diverse learning vehicle for educators.
