Maker Education can help kids to enjoy learning Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM). We at Fun2Do Labs - Open Education Project have published this presentation so that teachers can help their students to learn basics of science using project based activities. This will help teachers in imparting STEM education. In this presentation we teach how you how to make a toy car with Arduino.
