NASA AERO Institute in Palmdale will offer two free workshops for middle school teachers and students (grades 4-9) using LEGO Mindstorm kits. Teams of 4-6 teachers and students will learn about the history of robotics and how to start a team, as well as gain hands-on experience in programming and building a robot; teams will demonstrate their work before the group.

The workshops will be held on Friday, 29 July, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, at the Palmdale Boys and Girls Club, or on Wednesday, 3 August, 10:00 am to 4:00 pm, location TBD (East Lancaster tentative).
