Description

In this curriculum, students use the Mini Robot, a sophisticated robot specially developed for fast and fun learning. After an introduction to the parts of the robot and how it is used, students learn how to home the robot, use the control program to move the robot arm, and program rudimentary positions and programs. As students practice their manipulative skills, they learn more complex procedures and tasks, including laying out Cartesian coordinate grids, designing simple flow charts for programming, and running a complete cycle of robotic movements.
