Abstract
The article reports that the International Technology and Engineering Educators Association (ITEEA) members will contribute to the development of a hybrid professional development program designed to facilitate the scale-up of an innovative underwater robotics curriculum with funding from the National Science Foundation (NSF) in the U.S. WaterBotics, which was originally developed by Stevens Institute of Technology through an NSF Innovative Technology Experiences for Students and Teachers (ITEST) grant in 2006-10, is an underwater robotics curriculum that provides hands-on experience with a variety of concepts in physical science, engineering, and information technology and gives students valuable exposure to other 21st century skills.
