Theme: “Colour” Me!
Level 1 is an introductory course using Lego Mindstorms EV3. Kids will be able to identify the parts in Lego Mindstorms EV3.
Construction:
- Introduction to Lego Mindstorm EV3
- Introduction to Sensors (touch and colour sensors)
- Build a basic robot
Theme: Claw Machine
Level 2 is an introductory course to allow the kids to recognise the different usage of the motors.
Construction:
- Using a 3rd motor to construct a grabber and launcher!
Theme: Future meets Robotics
Level 3 will allow the kids to put work together as a team to strategize and complete the tasks given!
Construction:
- Construct a 3rd motor shooter
- Using wireless remote device to control the robot
Robo-Prentice Series
Level 1 is an introductory course in Lego Mindstorms EV3. Kids will be learning basic programming to control their robot.
Construction:
- Essential construction techniques
- Build a robot
Programming:
- GUI of Lego Mindstorms EV3
- Different blocks to control movement of robot
Key Takeaways:
- Abstraction: how to relate current learning to real life applications and situations
- Ability to recognise patterns
- Decomposition: to break down programming problems into manageable parts
Level 2 is about programming different sensors and understanding the applications of it in our real world.
Construction:
- Using different sensors for different application
Programming:
- Learning how to measure sensor values through experimental methods
- Incorporate conditional logic coding concepts with usage of sensors
Key Takeaways:
- Abstraction: appreciate and understand how the things around us “sense”
- 2Designing the algorithm in an efficient manner
Level 3 will use a line follower program to complete a construction mission with the different blocks program taught.
Construction:
- 3rd motor for construction mission
- Integration of robot components and attachments
Programming:
- Introduction to switch block
- Using what they have learn in level 1 and 2, they will program to complete a mission in Level 3.
- Focus on how to troubleshoot effectively through timed missions
Key Takeaways:
- Design Thinking: ideate and brainstorm the possible solutions for the problems on hand
- Computational Thinking: combining logic, abstraction, decomposition and algorithm design
Robo-Coder Series
Level 1 will explore advanced line follower program to improve the consistency and efficiency in the robot’s movements.
