Limited Capacity seats available
In this iNNovate Lab session, you’ll tackle a hands-on coding challenge and experience how students develop problem-solving and computational thinking skills through iteration and experimentation. You’ll work through the design process just like your students to plan, test, debug, and refine your solution. In this guided work session you will actively engage with coding and robotics and walk away with a realistic, classroom-ready activity you can use during the first marking period.
