Take STEM Learning to New Heights with Drones

Fri. April 11, 2025 | 9:00 am - 2:00 pm CDT

With plenty of uses in the ever-changing workforce, drones offer an engaging opportunity to teach our students real-world skills. With a drone in hand, your students’ STEM learning can truly take flight; all it takes is the right preparations and the right equipment.

Come discover what it takes to bring drones into the classroom as a part of this hands-on workshop. Participants will have the chance to ask questions and learn about essential drone terminology, as well as safety issues, legal concerns, operational requirements, and drone model options. With the basics down, educators will then try coding their own drone and discover strategies for implementing drones into new or existing STEM curriculums.

All paid attendees will also walk away an education drone of their own to make implementing their newfound drone knowledge even easier.
