We are excited to announce the next edition of the Sparks Space: Exploring 4-H the ROBOT way, is scheduled for March 9th at 10 am. We also wanted to share the results of the survey that you may have taken at the end of the February Sparks Space. We thank you for your feedback as it is very helpful in helping us to design the future Sparks Spaces and address any needs that folks may have.
Try out 4-H the robot way!
Our next Sparks Space, co-sponsored by the STEM Program
Work Team is all about robotics STEM programs. Hear stories of how youth thrive in local 4-H programs. Learn about how to get connected to people, activities, and equipment that can kickstart or help your robotics program grow. Try out coding a Hummingbird robot. Bring your robot to work by designing and building your own Junk Drawer Robot using found materials from your recycling bin and bringing it to the Sparks Space.
You may register for the session through the link below. We look forward to seeing you all!
When: Mar 9, 2022, 10:00 AM Eastern Time (US and Canada)
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
