Akorn and the Melbourne Chapter of Robogals are excited about working

we will announce additional dates later in the year.)
 
This fun hands-on day will provide information about various disciplines
of engineering and some of the many opportunities it offers.  The day
starts with an information session followed by a robotics workshop. The
final segment of the day will be a series of challenges with increasing
levels of difficulty.  Students will gain additional life skills such as
communication, collaboration and critical thinking as well.
 
Participation is limited so be quick to register your school & students.
If you would like to increase the awareness and knowledge of engineering,
science and technology to your students through this program please

Teams will also be supported by EWB engineering professionals and students
during their ³workshop² session and will present their recommendations to
all participants during the closing session of the conference.  Students
will be given time to ask questions of the panel of experts.
 
By having each team made-up of students from each participating school,
when returning to their home school ­ they will be able to present the
³whole² picture to fellow-classmates and staff.
 
Attendance is strictly limited to the first six schools responding to this
notice.
