Rutgers University, New Jersey, US
Makeblock ambassador Jason brought the xTool P2 and Makeblock coding robots to the NTEEA 2024 Conference, where he shared projects and resources with #STEM and #TechEd educators from across the state.
The coding robots demo was the highlight for me, my students would lose their minds over those. Jason walked us through real classroom projects instead of just talking theory, which made the whole session worth the drive to Rutgers.
Walked in knowing nothing about laser cutters and left genuinely excited. Jason let me run a small acrylic cut on the P2 myself and it came out clean on the first try. The coding robot demo was a nice bonus too.
The hands-on demo with the P2 laser cutter at the Rutgers session was easily the highlight of my Friday. I watched it etch a student project in minutes, and the ambassador actually walked us through the settings instead of just showing off the finished piece. Walked away with real ideas for my class
