Before an enthusiastic audience of fellow students and staff, middle school students in Karen Peterson’s technology class in the Shoreham-Wading River School District demonstrated their knowledge of advanced robotics on Jan. 13.

During the demonstration, the students presented robots they constructed and programed using Lego Mindstorms Ev3 robot expansion sets, iPads and Bluetooth connections.  

The technology students have been working on their robotic construction and programming skills since the seventh grade when they were first introduced to robotic technology.
