The Robolink community is showing up in a big way at ISTE 2026. From educator-led sessions and sponsored networking events to hands-on experiences at Booth 2522, this guide highlights where to connect with Robolink and CoDrone EDU throughout the week.
Meet the third fleet of Robolink Ambassadors: a community of educators, coaches, and STEM leaders bringing drones, robotics, coding, and hands-on learning into classrooms across the country. From elementary education to higher education, these ambassadors are inspiring students and supporting fellow educators through innovation, collaboration, and real-world STEM experiences.
Five days, no grades, and a whole lot of drones. Whether you're running a full week or just a few days, this free CoDrone EDU camp schedule has everything you need to pull off an unforgettable summer experience for your students.
Drones are changing how films are shot, sports are broadcast, and cities celebrate. Explore the careers — and how students can start building skills today.
What happens when a middle school drone program meets a city partnership — and how it's transforming the second-largest district in California.
Robolink, and the teams, showed up to the REC Foundation's ADC Signature Event: March Madness — Hoosier Edition in full force.
Celebrate spring STEM learning with a hands-on CoDrone EDU Pollination Challenge inspired by real pollinators and classroom creativity. In this spring-ready activity, students program their drones to travel from flower to flower, strengthen route-planning and coding skills, and explore how movement, efficiency, and energy use connect to real-world ecosystems. Inspired by Robolink Ambassador Ludyvina Gomez’s classroom innovation, this challenge blends environmental science, computational thinking, and purposeful flight in a way that keeps students engaged from takeoff to landing.
Robolink's March newsletter covers a rainbow-themed CoDrone EDU classroom activity, real-world drone career connections, and where to find us at ADC, Spring CUE, and MACUL.
Add a little color to your coding this March. In Rainbow Route: Arc to the Gold, students program their CoDrone EDU to trace a rainbow-shaped arc, change LED colors mid-flight, and celebrate with a printed success message. This layered mission keeps learners engaged while building skills in loops, timing, sequencing, and iterative problem solving.
In honor of Career and Technical Education Month, this blog highlights the Robolink Learn Python activity, Site Monitoring. Students step into the role of a professional drone pilot, programming a CoDrone EDU to simulate a real construction site inspection. Through time-based flight, altitude changes, and safe flight procedures, learners practice core coding skills while exploring real CTE pathways in construction, engineering, aviation, and technology. This lesson shows how classroom programming connects directly to workforce-ready applications and can be completed in either Python or Blockly.
In this CoDrone EDU Conversation Hearts activity, students build drone programs using physical, heart-shaped coding commands before translating their logic into code. By planning, testing, and flying their programs, learners explore sequencing, conditionals, and problem-solving in a hands-on, low-pressure way that builds confidence and understanding.
