2024 RoboPlay Competition

C-STEM Students

RoboPlay Competition is a level-playing field robotics competition with a focus on applying math to solve real-world problems.  It provides an opportunity for K-12 students to showcase their math problem-solving skills, creativity, and teamwork skills. 

RoboPlay Competition typically takes place during a school day from 1-4pm (thee teams per competition table, 1 hour for practice and 1:30 hours for competition) or 1-4:30pm (four teams per competition table, 1 hour for practice and 2 hours for competition) in an appropriately-sized venue in the hosting district.

Each academic year, C-STEM will provide challenge tasks (challenges) and solution videos for various grade levels.  To ensure fairness, these challenges will only be provided to District contacts who oversee the organization of the RoboPlay Competitions.  School districts that host RoboPlay Competitions may submit their student teams' scores to be ranked statewide.  Once the academic year is over, the challenges will be posted for teachers to access and utilize in classes.
