Robots in the classroom at St Joseph’s

STUDENTS at St Joseph’s Catholic Primary school in Biloela were visited by an exciting guest last month
.  
Dr Damien Kee is an Information Technology education expert and business owner,  
and, on Tuesday, 23, and Wednesday, 24, February Dr Kee taught the students lessons on robotics and critical thinking skills. 

He visited all classes from Prep to Year 6. 

The workshops were designed to teach the students problem solving skills, teamwork, collaboration, and cooperation – skills that the school believes will be important moving into the 21st century. 

Dr Kee also helped educate teachers and teacher assistants on the benefits and uses of technology in the classroom.
