Erie County STEM Symposium
August 11, 2025
About this Symposium...
⭐️NEW⭐️ 🤑 $500 Worth of LEGO Equipment will be given away at the conclusion of our symposium!
In order to build a network of educators that will lead and collaborate, we are asking each district to register 2 educators for EACH grade band: K-2, 3-5, 6-8. We welcome any administrators from ANY district that would like to attend and participate.
Session Goals:
Educators will explore the fundamentals of LEGO Robotics and drones, discovering practical strategies for integrating both technologies into the K-8 curriculum. Through hands-on activities, educators will gain confidence in using LEGO Robotics and drones to enhance student learning in STEM subjects, problem-solving, and computational thinking. Additionally, participants will explore how robotics and drones can be embedded into the curriculum to prepare students for emerging careers in the future workforce. Attendees will leave with ready-to-use lesson ideas that align with academic standards and foster student engagement.
