About our workshop leader: Caroline is a certified educator, mom of three, hardcore scientist, and all-around nerd. She received a BA from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor and an MSc (Masters of Science) from University College London. Her career has included conserving desiccated organic materials (i.e. Egyptian mummies and native American artifacts) for museums (including the British Museum, Brooklyn Museum of Art, and the Museum of New Mexico) and archaeological sites around the world. As the field of robotics has taken off, Caroline has leveraged her unique experience in art and science to develop a unique K-12 robotics program. Through MTL robotics classes, she hopes to inspire and share the possibilities of science, humanities, and technology with students in our community.
Registration is limited to 10 participants. The library will host one-off robotics workshops almost every month during the school year. Participants do not need any robotics experience to enjoy these programs!
