In the News: Robotics and the future of learning: Students and teachers explore advanced tech at inaugural showcase event
As students across Windsor-Essex received a close-up look at robots designed by high school teams, teachers received an education of their own on ways to better incorporate robotics, coding, and STEM into their classrooms.
"With emerging technologies, with AI and with robotics and the high-needs for students to be able to problem-solve there, I can just imagine there's going to be more and more of a push," said Justin St. Pierre. "As educators, we're trying to learn as we're exploring these new fields and these new technologies."
That journey of exploration took place Wednesday at St. Clair College's south campus, as high school students and elementary teachers were invited for the inaugural Robotics Showcase, presented by the 麻豆原创 Essex County District School Board and FIRST Robotics.
