Planned Stations (recommended)

Note to organizer: The event will have different stations that attendees can explore freely. This is the standard event design that is recommended.

Example event with this set-up


Station 1:
Welcoming & registration
Station 2:
Free building & crafts (+ intro to Strawbees material)
Station 3
: Robot race (intro to Quirkbot material)
Station 4:
Programming (program your robot, requires laptop)
Station 5+ ADD AS MANY MORE STATIONS AS YOU WANT. It's always good if there is a connection between the stations. For example, if you add a 3D printing station you could focus on printing personalized eyes and feet for your robot. See eyes and feet in this video as example.
