Program help and support

Whoever said, “science, technology, engineering, and math

can’t be fun”, never played with robots. Not an expert in

robotics? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. That’s why

we’re here. At STAX Education we are “programmed” for

fun and your family, school, or organization can be too!

Our vision is to create collaborative communities dedicated

to inspire the next generation of innovative problem

solvers.

STAX will help you create a customized and sustainable ro-

botics program through a collection of courses and experi-

ences designed to ENGAGE, EDUCATE, and EMPOWER

adults and children. Whether parent or teacher, profes-

sional or hobbyist, school or youth organization, STAX can

develop a customized plan to help implement a successful

and sustainable robotics program that meets your individu-

al needs.

Workshop Descriptions

Engage Series – create a sense of wonder

Robotics Program Demonstration

The best way for your organization and community to understand

robotics and your robotics program is to hold a robotics demonstra-

tion. You will be able to let everyone feel the excitement and imag-

ine the possibilities. The East Valley Robotics Academy can help you

plan, organize, and run this event.

Robotics Program Jump Start

Get your group “geared” up with a mini robotics event! We provide

instruction and equipment for 20 to 40 children and adults. Partici-

pants will work in teams to develop a strategy and build a robot

from a VEX IQ kit based on the provided game , culminating in a

collaborative robotics challenge on the final day.

Educate Series – offer experiences to gain knowledge

Robotics Program: Organizational Excellence

A robotics program is more than just teachers, classrooms, robots,

and competitions. There are four powerful pillars for creating a

dynamic Robotics Program: Leadership Excellence, Meaningful

Experiences, Superior Service, and Sustainability & Legacy. Together

these pillars create a culture of common purpose, mutual support,

innovation, and collaboration that will inspire for years to come.

Throughout this course, you gain insight into the strategies used to

produce a strong foundation and processes for sustained excel-

lence.

Robotics and Engineering Institute

This workshop focuses on learning how to incorporate various

robotics experiences into the project based learning class-

room. Participants will explore robotics using VEX IQ, engineering

principles using Hexbugs and GoldieBlox, and programming using

Ozobots, Dash and Dot, Puzzlets, and more.

Introduction to Robotics

Interested in sharing robotics with others but feeling over-

whelmed? We’ll break it all down in this “Back to Basics” course.

Would you like to “play” with the robotics kits learn more about

various robotics opportunities before you make your deci-

sion? What is the between VEX IQ and VEX? Gain insight into the

world of elementary school, middle school, and high school

robotics. Learn how to create your own robotics teams.

Robotics Coaching Clinic- Got Bots. Now What?

You’ve got a kit, and a team. Now what you need is some direction.

We’ve got a course for that. In our Robotics Coaching Clinic, you will

learn how to prepare your team for VEX IQ/VEX Robotics Challeng-

es. The Robotics Coaching Clinic is perfect for schools and teams

who would like to acquire a better understanding of all the major

aspects of a VEX IQ or VEX Robotics Challenge and how to prepare

for them.

VEX IQ Robotics Programming 101

Have you tried programming your robot but are still not having

much luck? The VEX IQ Robotics Programming 101 workshop

would be a great introduction to the programming a VEX IQ

robot. This clinic is for teams who are new to or have very limited

VEX IQ robotics experience.

VEX IQ Mechanical Design 101

Have you been working with your VEX IQ Robotics system for a

while but are still a little frustrated? This course is designed for

teams that would like additional help moving beyond the basic

robot claw bot with simple upright and arm. This clinic is for teams

who are new to or have very limited robotics experience.

Empower Series – provide tools for sustainability

Robotics Program Marketing

A major requirement for sustained long-term success of any

robotics program is presence of a systematized marketing plan. This

course will help you gain a deeper understanding of your organiza-

tion and help you develop systems to help you market your

program to attract the right student members, adults mentors, and

business sponsors.

Creating Robotics Clubs and Camps

Creating Robotics Clubs and Camps is professional development

PLUS. In this adult and child workshop students will be able to

learn robotics and engineering principles, teamwork, and problem

solving skills while taking part in a robotics sporting event while

adults learn how to host their own robotics camps and clubs in the

future.

Youth Robotics League Creation

Just imagine. You’re 12 years’ old. Robotics and engineering are

your passion but there is no place for you to go. Want to help... this

one day workshop would be a good place to start. You will learn about the

VEX and VEX IQ Robotics Competition and league system, have a chance

to explore the VEX and VEX IQ robotics kits, and to network with other

people who would like to create youth robotics leagues so every child can

chase their dream while being a member of a team.
