Developing Future-Ready Middle School Students with LEGO Education

Friday, February 16, 1:00 pm–2:50 pm
Seattle Convention Center - 619

FP59

Join us to explore ways to inspire middle school students and beyond to see themselves in STEAM careers through real-world, career-focused and hands-on STEAM learning experiences using LEGO Education SPIKE Prime solutions. The LEGO Education middle school lessons provide the opportunity to explore and develop skills in coding, data science, design engineering, and problem solving. We’ll demonstrate how students can use SPIKE Prime to analyze and interpret data to derive meaning, identify features and patterns, and discover relationships or correlations to develop evidence-based arguments or evaluate designs. We'll tie these skills to exciting real-world STEAM careers that will inspire students to envision themselves as future change-makers!
