Class Experience

  • Robotics is a growing field in our world that is constantly changing and advancing in technology. In this course, you will get to experience first hand what it is like to be a Robotics Engineer. You will have the opportunity to build and program your own robot through various obstacles and challenges presented throughout the class. Students will be creating models, programming, and building robots using the Lego Education WeDo 2.0 set for this course. Students will learn that being a Robotics Engineer starts with understanding a robot's parts and building and programming solutions to everyday problems. With the guide of an instructor, students will learn that they too can be Robotics Engineer.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Parents are advised to stay nearby while the class is running to offer technical support if there is an issue with the internet and/or the platform.
The robot platform communicates using Bluetooth technology, and Zoom meetings sometimes require some troubleshooting.
This class is a discovery class where the only academic requirement is a passion for learning and creating. Nevertheless, students must have the Lego WeDo 2.0 kit at home to participate.
