On Sept. 29, 2011, we had our 2nd meeting with kids from our AMIS Robotics Club. This time the kids had their first hand-on experience with a robot, and we've built a table for robot challenges. We also discussed a research papre the kids will be working on. 

As we are working with our Robotics Clubs, we will be documenting our progress.

SHPE Cincinnati is moving forward with its effort to established two Robotics Clubs in the Cincinnati area.

On Thursday, Sept. 22, the Coaches met with children from Lakota's Hopwell Jr. school, and AMIS (Academy of Multilingual Immersion Studies).

In AMIS we had 15 kids participating:

The goal was to introduce the FIRST Lego League concept, learn about the kids' expectations, provide them with a schedule for the reminder of the semester, and start team building. We also had our first "engineering challenge" - a competition to build the tallest tower out of spaghetti and marshmallows.
