UMass Lowell is hosting a free, hands-on workshop for K-12+ educators to learn about building robots, data collection, and collaborative data visualization using iSENSE — a web-based tool for use in middle-and high-school science and mathematics classrooms. The workshop will be held in Olsen Hall on Saturday, October 25 from 9AM to 1PM. Participants will:
- Interact with other teachers who have already used robots,
- Build and program robot creatures,
- Receive advanced instruction for experienced users,
- Learn about a new science offering on using sensors in the classroom, data collection & visualization, and
- Receive information about UMass Lowell workshops, scholarship, and funding opportunities.
Space is limited. Register online by October 18 (earlier is better). For more information, visit www.cs.uml.edu/k12 or email robots@cs.uml.edu.
