This series will help to introduce participants to the varied and ever-evolving world of robotics. We will discuss and review what they are and why we use them, before learning about a particular aspect of robots, and their role in helping the entire system. This then culminates into a short craft and in-depth activity to solidify and inspire their future endeavors in the field.
Each day will start with an introduction to robotics to help define and set up a basic foundational understanding (ex. What is a robot? What makes a robot? Why do we build them? etc.) This will then lead to one of four topics depending on the day.
- August 2 - Junior Roboticists - Girls of Steel - Understanding Robotics
- August 3 - Junior Roboticists - Engineering Design - Exploring Circuits
- August 9 - Junior Roboticists - Girls + Code - Coding & Programming
- August 10 - Junior Roboticists - Robots in our Life - Movement & Mechanisms
We will also highlight females in STEM each day, related to the topic at hand and/or are involved with robotics.
Geared towards grades 3rd - 5th.
