The Webster County 4-H Agent worked with the Webster County Middle School Science teacher/4-H Volunteer to offer a SET: Lego Robotics day camp. 25 youth were engaged in a 16 hour 4-H Robotic camp for 9 to 14 yr. olds. Youth were involved in hands-on activities using the LV3 Lego Robotics kits. Youth learned how to construct different Lego robots and how to program the robot using a computer coding program. The youth were divided into teams where they designed and programmed the robots to maneuver through different mazes. These hands-on activities encouraged the youth to think critically and problem solve, get excited about engineering and learn new life skills.
