Case Studies

Robotics-Enhanced STEAM

Students attending a center-based Special Education Program administered by the Fresno County Superintendent of Schools utilized robotics technology with programmable voice output capabilities with a Dash robot package. The robotic technology served as the students’ voice when the student is verbally prompted to respond to comprehension-check questions during classroom and community-based instruction. The classroom lessons using the district-adopted curriculum are linked to the content of the California State Standards.

The students who are the focus of this project traditionally have difficulty accessing academic curriculum due to the severity of their disabilities.
