Robotics! The fundamental tool used by modern classrooms in order to teach in an entertaining and interactive way Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) to students. Through this course, you will get acquainted with some of the most used Robotics Platforms available for today’s classroom.
Join us on our journey to the wonderful world of LEGO Mindstorms EV3 the most advanced LEGO robot today, LEGO BOOST the Golden Toy award winner of 2017, and Edison the super affordable educational robot from Australia.
Learn how to construct a robot, connect and use the programming interface, understand and control the various sensors and motors, and how to create and run programs. The course covers introductory programming topics such as using variables taken from the robot’s environment, programming conditional logic, and looping actions to run code repeatedly. By the end of the course, you will have the skills to bring your own robotic creations to life and gain the tools to create fun, interactive and educational activities for your students.
* The course can be modified according to the preferences of the attendees
