teach me and I may remember,
involve me and I learn.
-Benjamin Franklin
Learning by doing, help students form schemas of concepts learned. This in turn
fosters practical understanding of these concepts, developing innovative
thinking in them. Thus our Robotics & Automation workshop is a comprehensive
blend of theoretical knowledge and hands on experience.

INNOVATIVE THINKING
CHILDREN’S CREATIVITY
3. Teachers need to integrate technology seamlessly
into the curriculum instead of viewing it as an
add-on, an afterthought, or an event.
–Heidi Hays Jacob
This module covers all the basic concepts & mechanics for building a wheeled
based soccer robot from scratch. It is designed in a manner that implements
STEM concepts being taught in the school, to make students think out of the
box and to create something of their own.
WORKSHOP CURRICULUM
Integrating technical education is more than just teaching these basic skills.
For effective integration, any curriculum must support four key components
of learning: active engagement, participation in groups, frequent interaction
and connection to real world experts. .
WORKSHOP MODULE
In this introductory robotics workshop, we will teach students how to make a

starting point for a student, in Mechanical Robotics.
Our introductory robotics workshop fulfils this integration in an excellent
manner by allowing students to work in groups, frequent two way interaction
with our expert trainers throughout the workshop and active involvement
through hands on session. This workshop aims at promoting student’s interest
towards robotics as a career. Which has immense scope in various
technologies of today's age.

6. GROW THEIR LEARNING WITH US
WHO WE ARE
We are Educationists, Technocrats and Policy Professionals working towards
making technical education a reality among young minds. We believe that
education isSTEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Maths)
massively important for a student’s overall development. Thus, through Project
Based Learning we are urging schools to include this in their curriculum.
OUR MISSION
Towards this end, we are developing innovative school level robotics modules.
Through which students can not only have fun building, but also, extract
tangible learning experience out of them."
OUR PHILOSOPHY
We at believe that it is very important to introduceRootStalk Academy
technical education during the schooling process of a child; although not just
as an academic pursuit but as one that will eventually enhance the knowledge
of that child.
Advancing STEAM education in schools through Robotics as well as other
mediums. Our aim is to also spread our love of Robotics through well designed
online courses.
7. THE TEAM
A team is more than a collection of people.
It is a process of give and take.”
