Description

Class Experience

In this 3 day robotics class, students will learn how to program their robot in a virtual environment that they can practice in for days to come! Students will use a VEX Code, a block based coding language that allows them to understand sequential programming, loops, decision making logic, and some sensors. Students will talk about solutions, as well as where they can see robots in their everyday life. Time permitting, students will also draw up designs to compete in simple robotics...

Students will understand sequential programming. Students will be able to identify a robot. Students will be able to use their problem solving skills to go through simple challenges. Students will understand simple programming logic. Students will grow and appreciation and excitement for robotics and coding.

Katrina Selavko has participated in FIRST Lego League, FIRST, VEX, and VEX IQ for over 15 years. She has been a participant, coach, mentor, and referee for many of these events. She led her Robotics team to compete nationally, and internationally. She has been teaching at the Boys and Girls Club for 6 years in STEM education, and recently graduated from Carlow University

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:VEXCode

2 hours 15 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
