Techstination, your destination for gadgets and gear.   I’m Fred Fishkin.        They have had to go online this year….but the world’s largest student robotics competition returns this month.  The first ever Live Remote Vex Robotics World Championship takes place from May 17^th to the 29^th….with students from nearly all grade levels and from all over the world…involved.    At the Robotics Education and Competition Foundation..CEO Dan Mantz says..

“Our students learn a lot of tech schools, but it’s also important for them to collaborate and then also strategize.   So the REC Foundation decided to develop a new platform, something unique to the world, where students could still socially distance, but actually play our robotics competitions with real robots on real fields with real scoring elements.”

With real excitement.    For more info…head to www.roboticseducation.org.
