In this workshop we will discover different types of robots, explore their potential use for making people's lives easier, and learn how to program them. By the end of the week our robots will have a whole new set of useful capabilities, all taught by you!

  •  Got something to say? Work with staff from Rooted in Rights to produce a creative, fully accessible video that advocates for disability rights. You will experience the filmmaking process from start to finish. We will discuss effective storytelling, brainstorm topics, work on story structure, and write scripts. Then, we will use a simple set of tools to shoot a professional video. You will learn the basics of Adobe Rush and edit your own video. Finally, you will ensure video accessibility and of course, share them online via social media!
