=BEST Robotics Team Competition= Jimmy Linn (linnj@ecu.edu)

In this session, a demonstration of the BEST Robotics Robot will be conducted. BEST Robotics is a fast growing national robotics competition that teaches students STEM concepts. Typically, this robot is used by middle and high school AIG programs to teach students engineering and technology concepts, and eventually have a regional robotics competition. Mr. Tim DeCresie has committed to providing grants to 10 AIG teachers to be able to procure this robot for the 2012 - 2013 academic year. There will be a 3-day training session organized for AIG teachers who are awarded the grant to learn how to build and program this robot.
