Basic Robotics Lessons

This activity is designed to introduce students to the basics of robotics. Students will learn about different types of robots, control systems, and how different components can be used to create robotic systems.

This activity is designed to introduce students to different types of motion used in mechanical and robotic systems. Students will explore different mechanisms that convert motion from one form to another. Teams will then work together to design and engineer their own unique mechanisms.

This activity is designed to explore compound, robotic machine design. Students will build a series of compound machines and then analyze how each one works. This experience will give students the confidence to design and engineer their own compound, robotic machines. 

This activity is designed to challenge students to design and engineer a custom, remote  controlled factory lift capable of moving material. Students will work through the design process to develop a working model to be tested and evaluated. Students will be required to reflect on their design and effectively communicate it to others.
