Design Team Challenge
Students work in groups to build a robot. For this robotics lesson, students create an electronic robot and program it to follow directions. They create an obstacle course for the robot to follow and test its performance.
Curated OER
All About Safety
Students create a safety podcast. In this safety instructional activity, students in a robotics lab are introduced to the safety rules for each station. They create a podcast about one station explaining the rules with video, graphics,...
Curated OER
Cell Me What?
Students compare and contrast the characteristics of robots and cells. In this biology lesson, students examine the parts and function of cell organelles. They create a visual representation of their cell/robot analogy.
Curated OER
Fun Robot Activities
Students complete a variety of activities that have to do with robots. In this robot lesson plan, students pretend to do tasks blindfolded, look up a chat bot online, list TV shows based on robots, and more.
Curated OER
Call to Arms
Learners explore how scientists build robotic arms that move similar to humans. In this robot lesson, students examine how scientists make robots. Learners design and construct a mechanical arm that moves like a human arm. Students...
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
Automated Vehicle Programming Design
Students design a program to make an automated vehicle perform a specific task. In this robotics lesson plan, students play the role of scientists competing to win a factory's contract. They present their algorithm to class.
