Robots in the Classroom | Tanya Warford of Valmont Academy

Creators at the World's Edge

Meet Tanya Warford, the math and science teacher transforming rural education through technology. When her students were stuck in one classroom, she didn't just think outside the box - she built a whole new one with LEGOs. Now her "LEGO Ladies" are crushing robotics competitions, coding like pros, and proving that sometimes the best innovations start with someone brave enough to say, "let's try this!" From Minecraft math to award-winning robotics, she's showing how a little chaos and a lot of support can help any classroom become a launchpad for tomorrow's tech innovators.
