  Robotics Team                  

     CRN: 50722      

    

   This class works toward learning to compete in the LEGO® League

   Challenge Fall 2012. We will work as a team to build a robot and program

   it to solve   challenges. This class does include outside work (a research

   project, signs,  Saturday competitions, etc.).

 

   Ages 9-14 

   Tuesdays 4-7pm 9/4/12 - 12/11/12

  Elementary Simple Machines

     CRN: 50723  

 

   Using DUPLO® blocks students will build moving creations and we will

   discuss how and why they work (example: a pinwheel).  There is no

   computer usage in this class and the creations are built from following

   simple pictures. 

 

   Ages 6-7

   Mondays 12:30-1:30pm 9/10/12 - 12/10/12

 

  WeDo® Robotics

    CRN: 50724

 

   Using specialty LEGO® kits students build a different machine each week. 

   Computer programming makes the machine move and different types of   

   movement are discussed (gears, levers, motors, etc.).  No experience

    required.  Building instructions are step-by-step pictures.

 

   Ages 7-8

   Mondays 10am-11:30am 9/10/12 - 12/10/12

  Robotics I (NEW students)   

     CRN: 50493    

 

   Students will build a robot using a blueprint, learn to use sensors and

   program their robot. They will practice their new-found skills by

   programming their  robot to accomplish specific missions. Students need to

   have basic computer skills and be able to work both independently and as

   part of a group.

   Ages 9-15

   Mondays 4-7pm 9/10/12 - 12/10/12

  Robotics II

     CRN: 50494

 

   Building on the skills learned in Robotics I, students will learn to design and

   build their own robot.  Building skills are the emphasis in this class,

   although there will be some programming as well. 

   Ages 9-15

   Thursdays 4-7pm 9/6/12 - 12/13/12
