Why I need this: The Dash and Dot Robots would extend our Robotics Unit from building robots to programming robots to complete a specific task. Currently my students build specific robots that are pre-programmed, the Dash and Dot Robots would allow me to take my students to the next level.
Why I need this: The 3D printer will allow my students to create a prototype of their invention. The invention that they choose to create has to solve a problem and complete a job. The students will have to market and present their invention to observers. The observes will rate their projects using a Likert scale. We will also use the 3D printer to create 3D models in science class.
Why I need this: Students will use the computer microphones to add audio to videosand to record mp4 files of books for special needs and lower grade students.
