The VEX Robotics Design System offers students an exciting platform for learning about areas rich with career opportunities spanning STEM fields. These are just a few of the many fields students can explore by creating with VEX Robotics technology. Beyond science and engineering principles, a VEX Robotics project encourages teamwork, leadership, and problem solving among groups. It also allows educators to easily customize projects to meet the level of students’ abilities. The affordable VEX platform is expanding rapidly and is now found in middle schools, high schools and university labs around the globe. Robotics hobbyists also appreciate the advanced capabilities of the VEX System.
The REC Foundation’s Online Challenges provide a unique opportunity for students from around the world to participate in VEX Robotics Competition and VEX IQ Challenge-based engineering competitions. Students can show off their work, win prizes, and even get a chance to compete at the VEX Robotics World Championship. The REC Foundation organizes Online Challenges in subjects such as robot construction, sustainable engineering, animation, and video production. Students from all over the world have participated in past challenges, and we are proud to announce the challenges for this season. Mixing successful ideas from the past four years with new challenges and interesting twists, we expect that this year will generate even more student excitement than last.
