Ready, Set, Explore STEM & Innovation

WITF proudly invites families to explore our new Innovation Studio at the WITF Public Media Center.

The Innovation Studio’s robotics stations feature Cubelets, Ozobots, Spheros, Dashbots and more!

Drive Spheros through a moon map, convince the Bea’s Bee Bots to return to their hive, and code Ozzy Ozobot a path out of the bright sun!
Do you think you can get a plane off the ground and land it too? We think so! Test your pilot skills in our brand-new flight simulator and discover aerodynamics concepts at our flight station.

Then, imagine and make with Legos, K’Nex, Magna Tiles, and more, before getting your photo taken with Pete the Cat!

Before you leave, visit the book giveaway table to choose a book to take home. Learning stations at Ready, Set, Explore STEM & Innovation are designed for kids and teens, ages 3 – 14 years.

Before Ready, Set, Explore, educators are invited to explore our Innovation Studio at STEM & Innovation for Educators from 9 – 11am!

This free drop-in event immerses educators in principles rooted in phenomena-based concepts and shares ideas on how you can incorporate these concepts into your lesson plans.

Explore educational STEM resources, tools and ideas and participate in inquiry-based lessons and activities focused on coding and robotics, design challenges and scientific investigations. Plus, find out how a meaningful partnership with WITF can bring these learning opportunities – and the Innovation Studio – into your classroom!
