This class introduces the gadgetry that powers our household devices. In our time together we will be making devices, at first collaboratively, then individually. Every participant can opt to build a robot that will solve a maze or follow the sound of your voice. We use the LEGO Mindstorms RCX Robotics Invention System (LEGO Mindstorm NXT & Intro to 3rd Gen. EV3). Learn mechanical design, construction, programming & teamwork skills. In pairs, students build different robots & program them with a computer to move, react & make sounds to solve challenges.

Fee includes materials.

Students may bring lunch as needed (20-30 minutes of each class will be devoted to lunch and warm-up activities).
