ISTE Education Conference Robotics and Python

Our very own Vern Ceder had a wonderful presentation at the ISTE Education conference in Philadelphia, PA today. The talk was on the Scribbler Robot system and controlling it with Python. Robots+Python = Nirvana for me. Thanks for bringing this to a wider audience and getting the word out there about STEM and Python. I am sorry that I had to leave early for my own presentation, so I was wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing your presentation slides with us. Thanks again, it was a pleasure to see you in person and be inspired! Phil Wagner Education Resources Blog: www.brokenairplane.com

I am really interested in this talk, as a robotics-in-education && python addict. On Tuesday, June 28, 2011, Phil Wagner <philhwagner@gmail.com> wrote:

Thanks for the kind words, Phil. It was great to put a face to another edu-sig name! I've posted my write-up at http://learnpython.wordpress.com/2011/06/28/iste-python-and-robots/ Overall my sense was that interest in open source software and Python was down from past years, but that may not be true - I was in and out in just a few hours.
