Robot Labyrinth
Students design a flowchart for their robotic program. In this physics lesson, students construct a robot that can navigate certain obstacles. They present their program and robots in class.
Curated OER
Sensor Challenge
Learners develop a pseudo code flowchart for their robotic program. In this physics instructional activity, students construct a robot that can navigate through certain obstacles. They test their robot and present them to class.
Curated OER
Systems and Control
Students create a circuit board that demonstrates how a traffic light works. After writing a PIC program for traffic lights, students assemble a circuit board to test the validity of the program they have written. Circuit boards and...
