Students will explore the world of robotics in a “hands-on = minds-on” program that highlights the engineering design cycle and fosters collaborative problem-solving. Coursework will include building, programming, and re-interating robots to solve problems. Learning to work in a group will also be a critical component of the course, cultivating collaborative skills. This course provides a platform for learning the basics of robotics, engineering design, and the scientific process.
Students will utilize VEX IQ kits and the associated programming language to explore the fundamentals of engineering principles, mechanical techniques, and VEX programming, while engaging with the engineering design cycle. For their final project, they will apply their skills on a VEX IQ competition board, designing, building, and programming a robot of their own creation.
This course requires the use of a laptop (no tablets). The Robinson Center can provide a device if your student does not have access. You can learn more about Device Requests here.
