Educate NXT
Posted on Monday, May 31 @ 11:32:40 BST
Topic: Robotics Curricula (from schools to HE)

I am pleased (and excited) to announce that after two years of research, writing, trialing and editing, “Educate NXT” is rolling off the presses at PITSCO (LEGO Education North America) for Worldwide distribution.

"Educate NXT" is a 275-page printed robotics resource for teachers and students. Teachers will find out how to successfully and confidently manage a robotics program within their school. It includes graded student worksheets, extensive teacher sections, animated PowerPoints and additional challenges. Educate NXT is designed to give educators control within the robotics classroom, yet fosters learning freedom and the buzz of student engagement.

I invite all current (and future) Robotics teachers to check out the "Educate NXT" website www.educatenxt.com which gives a very comprehensive overview of this exciting new resource.
