I often give workshops to schools and college children to enthuse
them about engineering using robots. Some of these are 'hands-on'
building Lego Mindstorms, or I give talks and (lots) of demonstrations
to large groups. I am affiliated to Walking with Robots where I link
with schools, or schools get in touch via the University. I am a STEM
affiliate and have full CRB clearance.
