It’s simple, right? Pick up the blocks; stack the blocks; put a block in the cup.....These budding engineers make it look easy! @VEXRobotics #OhioEd pic.twitter.com/7t8ARgmzm4

It's great to meet so many students at the Ohio @VEXRobotics Championships!

Robotics and coding can expand interests, create new learning ventures and encourage exploration in STEM fields.

Here's the team from @FirestoneCLC in @AkronSchools! #OhioEd pic.twitter.com/ojNo9RHem7

Team-building, competition and lots of fun! Team Butterfly Effect, from @ElyriaHigh, shared the concept and approach to building their robot.

Outstanding work from these @ElyriaSchools students at the Ohio @VEXRobotics Championships! #OhioEd pic.twitter.com/Iw7XSCprx7

Designing, programming and much more! Wonderful to meet Kristi Matlack and her @NU_Robotics team!

Kristi explained how students apply and expand what they learn in the classroom to create more learning opportunities.

Advisors and volunteers make it all happen! #OhioEd pic.twitter.com/hcxAvOZqkv
