COURSE DESCRIPTION
Students are provided laptop computers, programming software, LEGO® Construction Kits, motors, sensors as well as direct instruction by highly qualified and NYS Certified Teachers. Working in teams of two, young students design their own solutions by building LEGO® models along with programming them to perform certain tasks. Cause and effect learning is enhanced by the models remaining tethered to a computer and, similar to scientists working in labs, students can test and adjust their programming in real time. After reflecting on what did and did not work, students consult with their peers, adapt programming, adjust models, or begin again. Students also experience data-logging with recording their testing and performance results on Activity Data Tables. This robotics system was designed by the creators of the LEGO® Mindstorms NXT Robotics System for Middle and High Schools students. Register for one of our 4-day sessions, below.
For an optional full-day camp experience, campers can register for afternoon Fencing Camps (the intellectual sport) and bring their lunch. Staff from the Rochester Fencing Club will walk campers from the classroom to the cafeteria and then on to the gym for a full day of exercising both mind and body!
