The worksummarized here illustrates that intentional curricular design for ER programs may be aneffective tool to increase student diversity in the STEM fields.Robotics as a vehicle to strengthen STEM conceptsPrevious ER implementations and research suggests the practicality of using a roboticscurriculum in order to promote meaningful learning of STEM concepts [5]. These ERimplementations have transformed traditional STEM education processes by teaching theoreticalconcepts through concrete robotics experiences.
