Coding Summit
We have been hosting a coding based event for the last three years. Last year we had over 250 participants consisting of teachers and students, and a total of 15 different workshops like Scratch & Makey Makey, Programming with Arduino, Raspberry Pi & Python, MIT App Inventor & Mobile Application, Java / Processing, 3D Design with Maya, IOS Mobile Application, Game Development with Unity, Illustrator & After Effects, 3D Design with Fusion 360, Chuck And Music Programming with Sonic Pi, Image Processing, Machine Learning, LabVIEW, Robotic Programming with LEGO EV3.
We are planning to gather unused legos from our students in Hisar Schools. These legos’ purpose is not going to be toys. With the legos, we are going to make a kit that explains how to make a robot and send them to the public school Nejat Sabuncu. After we gather the legos we will separate them by their sizes and colors. We will design a guidance to guide students to make a robot.
Online Material
We released a Turkish version of the 2017 FRC event manual for Turkish teams who have trouble understanding English. We plan on continuing this as a Citadel tradition.
We created WhatsApp groups for Turkish FRC teams. These groups allowed mentors and participants to ask questions and support each other on issues pertaining FRC and robotics in general.
We released a Turkish labview tutorial and a Kit of Parts explanation video on youtube in order to make life easier for Turkish rookie teams.
1 Lego 1 Friend
A lot of students in our school once played with a lego or at least had a lego in their house. As students grow up, they stop playing with their toys, like Legos. With this campaign, our team will be using unused legos for a better cause. Our goal is to collect as lego as we can and make other students have a chance to learn and play at the same time.
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle
4 team members plan to hold a project about collecting and recycling electronic waste. We are planning to send the collected electronic waste to a recycler. By selling these refurbished electronic pieces, the company will buy a computer with the collected money. Our goal is to donate the computers to a public school that is in need. Electronic waste will be collected from students in Hisar School.
