One of the reasons we are so excited about attending race events and other events around the country is that we get to meet other people who are learning about or are already excited about the benefits of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics/Manufacturing (STEM) education. We recommend that students get involved at their school, in their community or online in STEM learning and subscribe to tutorials, sign up for prize challenges or join a robotics team in their area. Here are some great resources we’ve discovered so that students can continue the STEM learning excitement!
