Update 09/14/22: Dave’s Contact at Vex is sending to Kits which Dennis will play with and set up in the IoT Lab. We are evaluating kit for being a primary part of the lab environment for student learning experiences.

Key next steps Dennis/David are:

to refine learning outcomes,
get syllabus into the approval process,
set target class size, class student-to-equipment ratio,
decide on course technologies (which robotics kits, which programming environments)
brainstorm core lab experiences.
