Members at Boys & Girls Clubs of San Dieguito’s Harper Teen Center had their first workshop on how to build and program their own robots. The workshop series is part of the Club’s STEAM education programming which exposes members to hands-on activities to stimulate early interest in fields such as science and engineering. The teens will be using LEGO Mindstorms Education EV3 robotics kits to develop robots that stand and walk upright, navigate mazes using ultrasonic sensors, and move at different speeds in response to code that the teens will learn to write on their own. The Lego kits were purchased with an award from the McCarthy Family Foundation.
