Welcome to the Modern Classroom

In today's classroom students no longer complete pages of worksheets; instead they explore problems and create solutions. Computer Science and Computational Thinking are essential skills when solving critical thinking challenges and can be applied in almost any subject. This session will discuss popular tools for integrating Robotics, Programming, and Computer Science into your classroom, with a focus on content and tools for K-8 grades.
