An after-school robotics module for introducing elementary school students to engineering

Robotics is a good way to get students interested in STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) subjects. This paper presents a robotics module that was developed to introduce elementary school students to some aspects of Engineering - namely Electrical and Computer Engineering. The paper describes a robotics module that was developed for use at an after-school program. The description includes robotics kits used, exercises, and the State of Georgia standards that were addressed.
