As someone who developed curriculum for LEGO robotics in particular and taught them K-12, I have lots of good experience using robotics K-12 and not waiting until high school or later. Younger students can do so much especially with LEGO robotics as the leverage their LEGO experience. #EduSkyChat

Q1: 21st Century skills come to mind first but I am also seeing that things like focus, ethics, the ability to discern fact from fiction are becoming increasing important. #EduSkyChat

This is off topic but as we gather... Is there a active Ed Chat on Blue Sky that would be a good one for my undergrad students to try out? Lots of future elementary teachers. I have the spreadsheet listing them all, which is great... #EduSkyChat
