DIY Lab Created With Lego Pieces Was Designed To Inspire STEM Learning

by Jonathan SangerA robotic lab is made with Lego pieces was designed to help get kids interested in STEM.Researchers at Stanford University, led by Ingmar Riedel-Kruse, created a DIY lab out of a robotic Lego Mindstorms kit and basic lab supplies. The researchers wanted to get kids interested in “wet” sciences, like biology, chemistry and medicine. Students can use the setup to perform basic experiments like comparing liquid density. They also learn about robotics and coding during the process. The kit isn’t just for kids – it’s precise enough that it could even be used for some experiments in labs.
