Student Voices in STEM: Interactive Dioramas
Description

What happens when students are empowered to redesign a traditional science project using robotics and engineering? In this interactive CUEKids session, student presenters will share how they transformed classic dioramas into engaging, robotics-enhanced STEM experiences focused on endangered plants and animals. Students will demonstrate their projects, explain their design process, discuss challenges they solved, and reflect on how coding, engineering, creativity, and science worked together throughout the experience. Attendees will hear directly from learners about collaboration, problem-solving, computational thinking, and hands-on discovery. Participants will also have the opportunity to interact with the student-created habitats and robotic monitoring devices while exploring practical ideas for integrating STEM across content areas.
