"미래의 로봇 공학자를 꿈꾸며"… 일주일간의 열정 가득했던 재미한인과학기술자협회 시애틀 지부 로보틱스 캠프 성료
2026-08-19 15:55 | WA
재미한인과학기술자협회(KSEA) 시애틀 지부는 LA 지부와 함께 청소년을 대상으로 일주일간 로보틱스 캠프를 성공적으로 개최했습니다.
참가 학생들은 햄스터 로봇을 활용해 로봇 코딩과 제어의 기초를 배우고, 직접 프로그램을 설계하고 테스트하며 문제 해결 능력과 논리적 사고력을 키웠습니다. 또한 로봇 경주와 축구 등 다양한 실전 챌린지에 참여하며 팀워크와 소통의 중요성을 경험했습니다.
이번 캠프는 학생들이 로봇과 코딩을 직접 경험하고 미래 과학기술에 대한 관심과 흥미를 높이는 뜻깊은 시간이 되었습니다. 캠프 운영과 교육에 힘써주신 Chloe Chi, Cooper Chi, Christopher Dickman, Lincoln Johnson 선생님께도 깊은 감사를 드립니다.
