2006 Robotics Education Symposium
|
Through a grant from The National Science Foundation, the Technology Student Association hosted a two-day symposium in May 2006, titled “Strengthening STEM Education Through The Use of Standards-Based Assessments for Robotics Competitions” at Georgetown University in Washington, DC. Nearly 50, roboticists, STEM experts and teacher educators worked to develop the components for a robotics assessment rubric that can be incorporated into competitive event activities and instruction in the high school classroom. In the subjects of Science, Technology/Engineering, Math and Career/Skills, teams developed the components of an assessment rubric that address each set of Standards, robotics curriculum and explanations, and related professional development issues.
