Robotics in our Schools |

Since 2005, TVA Partners in Education has supported Robotics in Education, starting with a handful of schools. In 2017, Greater Chattanooga Robotics was formed to continue supporting Robotics in Education for nearly 40 Chattanooga area schools, as TVA endeavors to support Robotics Programming for more than 200 schools throughout the Tennessee Valley. To reflect our support of robotics across the 7 state region known as the Tennessee Valley we have rebranded our non-profit to TN Valley Robotics.
CompetitionsTN Valley Robotics will be supporting local robotics tournaments: TN Chattanooga (North GA) Regional FLL Qualifying Tournaments in Blairsville, GA, Saturday, November 23; Chattanooga, TN, Saturday, November 23; Dalton, GA, Saturday November 16; and Rossville, GA on Saturday, November 16, 2019.

STEM lessons are extremely important for students as they prepare to enter the 21st-century workforce. Through robotics, students can learn more than just how to code. They can learn skills in leadership, community involvement, communicating across different technology platforms, finding their passions, and teamwork, which will position them for success well beyond their school years. As we continue to support education in the Tennessee Valley, we're excited to see the benefits that experiences in and through robotics will uncover next!"

"When students work in groups on a project with a robot they quickly see that technical skills, such as coding, are very important. However, their robot won’t move if they don’t know how to collaborate with others and communicate their ideas. Through robotics in the classroom, students learn how to express themselves and listen and relate to others— honing valuable life skills."
"The ability to come together as different types of leaders, communicate with each other and utilize their personal strengths will be essential throughout our students’ lives, no matter if they become an artist, a business executive or an engineer." |
