Abstract
In the past thirty years, educational programs like the Massachusetts Institute of Technology/Office of Naval
Research’s SeaPerch have been effective at introducing students to robotics, science and engineering concepts through low-cost, hands-on curricula [1], [2]. These programs have been integral in preparing students to pursue degrees and careers in STEM that meet the needs of a 21st century global economy [3]. In order to address rapid technological growth and our dynamic digital climate, such vital STEM educational opportunities must continuously evolve to provide students the tools necessary for meaningful engagement within a future global workforce.
