Join us for a celebration of all-things programmable! Meet engineers, coders, and makers who tinker and build these exciting machines! Try coding some of the Montshire’s hands-on robots at this interactive day for all ages.

Wearable technology, robotics, quantum computing, and more…welcome to Duke Engineering! We invite community members of all ages to spend the afternoon with Duke Engineering faculty, staff, and students. Engage in over 20 hands-on activities and demos to experience the fun and joy of STEM. Participate in “STEM-ulating Conversations” with faculty and students to hear how they imagine, build, and belong at Duke. Take a tour of the Duke Engineering Quad to learn about our engineering research and education. And, after all that excitement, you might just earn a prize!

The Kenyan K. Beals Community Robotics Center is a joint project between Hawaii Science and Technology Museum and Mokupāpapa Discovery center. We’ve partnered to introduce new students to robotics as well as offer lab and practice space to local teams. Through KKBCRC we offer the VEX VRC and VEX IQ platforms as well as MATE ROV underwater robotics. Located on the top floor of 76 Kamehameha Ave, this STEM education center is a place to share the love of robotics with students and help new teams and coaches get started with the resources and information they need. Come visit us every Saturday from 10am-2pm!

Featuring hands-on activities created by teachers, students, local universities, museums, community organizations, and businesses, STEAMfest offers visitors an exciting look into the fields of science, technology, engineering, arts, and mathematics. It’s an opportunity to take part in fun, engaging, hands-on activities that give us even more reason to imagine, discover, and explore all of the wonderful possibilities that surround us.

Come join us for an introduction to 3D printing and CAD! We will learn how to use TinkerCAD and how 3D printing works. There will be a live demonstration of the 3D printer working. Participants may receive a 3D printed giveaway upon participation.

The VEX Robotics competition prepares students to become future innovators with 95% of participants reporting an increased interest in STEM subject areas and pursuing STEM-related careers. Tournaments are held year-round at the regional, state, and national levels and culminate at the VEX Robotics World Championship each April!

Join The Science Zone each month to discover computer science and other technology! Designed for homeschool students of all ages, Technology Exploration Days encourage students to use logic, problem-solving, creativity, and more! This month: Robotics!
