The goal was not perfection, but curiosity, encouraging students to experiment, troubleshoot, and learn through iteration. Engaging Introductions: From Curiosity to Creation I began the workshop by asking students what they thought robots could do beyond what they see in movies. This led to a discussion about robotics in healthcare, manufacturing, and everyday automation. By connecting robotics to real-world applications, students became excited to move from ideas…
