Robots are here, and they're invading our schools, homes, and libraries! Now more than ever, there's a plethora of choices for teachers and parents to teach coding and engineering skills. Students from kindergarten to college can sharpen their STEM skills with the robot of their choice, but with so many options out there it's hard to know where to start. What robot is right for your students or children? Finding out would normally require extensive time and research, but this talk will help to provide an overview of your options.

During the course of this talk, you'll see demonstrations of many of the leading educational robots, and even a few that are less well known. This overview of your robot options will cover a spectrum from the easiest, screen-free codable robots for the youngest children to robots that rely on block-based coding such as Scratch and Tynker, and finally those robots that work with script code like Python. Discover for yourself exactly what you can choose from to enrich your children's education with the robot that will work best for them.
