TechStart Partnership

I'm excited to announce that we've started a great partnership with TechStart. They're using our Mars Rover and Robot Zoo activity guides. If you're interested in a partnership, please contact us at partner@technicallylearning.org

From the TechStart blog:
TechStart students in our robotics classes learn to design, build, and program robots using the Lego® Mindstorm™ system. In the Fall of the 2008-2009 school year, they learned about the Mars Rover and created their own robots related to the field of astronomy. In the Winter session, they studied biology and created a robot zoo, complete with plants, animals, and, well, some interesting creatures from the depths of their imaginations. Check out the video above for a look at the sled dogs one student was able to make in just a few short hours. Our robotics curriculum is provided by Technically Learning, a partner nonprofit dedicated to providing hands on science, technology, engineering, and math learning activities and resources to teachers and students.
