Advanced Robotics

This course will continue to explore the relations between science and technology with an emphasis on designing, building, and programming robots to compete in competitions against other middle school students. Students will focus on advanced robotics concepts including becoming a “C” programmer. The program is designed to build upon basic concepts covered in the Design - S.T.E.A.M. MYP 1 and 2 classes. A desired outcome is to design, build, and program robots for the official VEX game that is released at the beginning of each school year. In addition, involvement in the robotics program is intended to further motivate students to pursue advanced education in the engineering fields.
