Robots explore Mars, engineers design rollercoasters, and scientists discover new materials – all using problem-solving through testing and building. Learning robotics and engineering reveals how the world works, from how machines move to why bridges stand strong, teaching Explorers to think like inventors who change the world with their ideas.
Explorers will code robots to navigate challenges – building structures, using sensors, and testing how to make things fast or sturdy. Students discover how to control machines through programming and how engineers use science to solve important problems. Their ProjectFUN robot moves and thinks on its own – a mechanical creation they bring to life!
