The NASA STEM Educator Professional Development Collaborative at Texas State University is providing a 1-hour webinar.

Robots are a part of our everyday lives. We use them in ways we don't always realize. What are robots, how are they used in our lives and how are they used at NASA? These are some of the questions investigated in this webinar. Explore how to use robotics, inexpensively, in your classroom to enhance your students' STEM understanding by integrating NASA STEM robotics missions, curriculum, online resources and the NGSS 3-5.ETS1 / MS.ETS1.
