How Does a Robotics Engineering Course Increase Student Achievement?

This is a hot topic in our school system right now. Shrinking budgets and increased focus on standardized test scores and AP curriculum have decision makers asking hard questions like these. I'm part of a task force investigating the validity and sustainability of courses like high school robotics engineering. I'm looking for evidence supporting what I already know... Courses like these increase student achievement. Can you help me with your reply?
