STEM Robotics Workshop: Build, Code & Drive Your First Robot

Join us for a beginner-friendly STEM workshop where students will get hands-on with robotics, coding, and creative problem-solving.

Inspired by entry-level robot kits like mBot, this workshop introduces participants to the basics of building and programming a small robot from the ground up. Students will learn how robots think, move, sense their environment, and respond to commands through simple block-based coding activities.

No prior coding or robotics experience is required. This workshop is designed to make STEM feel fun, approachable, and interactive.

Participants will explore:

How robots are built and controlled
Basic electronics, motors, sensors, and movement
Beginner-friendly block-based coding
Remote control robot movement
Obstacle avoidance and line-following challenges
Team-based problem-solving and creative experimentation

By the end of the workshop, students will have a clearer understanding of robotics, engineering, and programming — and the confidence to keep building.

Perfect for curious beginners, future engineers, young makers, and anyone who wants to experience STEM through hands-on play.

Who should attend: Students, beginners, families, and anyone curious about robotics and coding.

What to bring: Just yourself and your curiosity. Materials will be provided unless otherwise noted.
