This week, I had an amazing opportunity that I just had to share with you. A colleague in Connecticut and I had planned a collaborative project using Finch robots. We wrote grants to receive the robots in a
loan program through BirdBrain Technologies. We wanted to share challenges and activities with our classes. Well, organizers for
EdCamp Global saw some of our plans on Twitter and asked if we'd like for our students to present in an upcoming event.
We invited Andy Plemmons from the state of Georgia to join us in the Google Hangout on Air and he agreed. It was quite an interesting experience that Andy details in this blog post: http://expectmiraculous.com/2016/01/29/connecting-voices-through-robotics-an-edcamp-global-event/
Andy even includes our archived presentation!
If you have a few minutes this weekend, I hope that you'll take a look at Andy's post. I look forward to future events where I may link my students with others around the globe.
