'AgBots: Kids Programming for the Future' |

Autonomous robots have entered the field of agriculture, helping farmers meet the pressure to feed more people. Come see junior bots in action, programmed and built by elementary students to perform tasks that can prepare them for future careers. Programming requires collaboration, perseverance, critical and creative thinking as students work through the engineering process to meet a challenge – all skills useful in academics and the real world. See the fun and rewards these students have experienced. Learn how your students can be a part of this program, and how agriculture can be exciting and high-tech! Workshop Session (all workshops will be 60 minutes) | |
