The Ecobot Challenge is here!!!!

Houston, the Ecobot Challenge is here.

"The EcoBot Challenge gives students the option of entering two different competitions.

They can build physical robots that perform specific environmental tasks.
They can develop ideas for robots that perform other environmental tasks and then create a PowerPoint presentation that describes how they would market their inventions

Follow up:

In 2010, we intend to expand the EcoBot Challenge to other Texas cities. Our goal: support teachers, teams and local competitions in Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, El Paso and other cities. The Texas Ecobot Challenge Finals will be held in Houston at Reliant Center on April 17, 2010."

Parent's this will be an event and experience that would prove excellent to our students. The event is free (have to pay for parking) but the value of seeing others work together and use their minds to create, build while being conscious of mother earth are priceless. We will see you at the EcoBot Challenge 2010!!!!

Creative Tutors wishes luck to all of the teams involved in the EcoBot Challenge and looks forward to seeing this years efforts!
