Premise
Robotics and related technologies have become an integral part of modern life. Because human and machine interactions will continue to shape our future, we have the responsibility to understand the course of this journey.
Stream Description
In this stream, students will investigate the history of robots and how robots may affect humans. Students will learn simple machines, computer programming, and robot design from imagination to creation as they ultimately build and program a robot.
Simulations
Simulation 1: Robots
Students will design and build a robot, which they program to perform a specific task. They will document this process and present their robot.
Simulation 2: Robotics Symposium
Students will organize and participate in a "Robotic Technology Showcase" that incorporates the major knowledge areas discovered during this stream. Students will present various projects to their peers, parents, and experts in fields related to robotics.
