$50 per student
***Use Coupon Code STEPUP if your child receives the scholarship and I will reach out about setting up the direct-pay payment.
Class Description:
In Track Your Packages, students will explore robotics, programming, and precision control as they use LEGO Spike Prime to create an X-Y tracking device. The class combines engineering and coding skills, enabling students to program their robot to follow a predefined path on a piece of paper. Through this engaging activity, students will learn how to integrate multiple programming stacks and develop skills in spatial navigation, logic, and creativity.
What Students Will Learn:
Engineering and Building: Design and construct a robot capable of X-Y tracking.
Programming Skills: Use LEGO Spike Prime's coding interface to create precise movement instructions.
Coordinate Systems: Understand X-Y coordinates and how they apply to robotics navigation.
Problem-Solving: Troubleshoot and refine robot behavior for accurate path-following.
Activities Include:
Designing and assembling an X-Y tracking device using LEGO Spike Prime.
Programming movement using a mix of programming stacks to execute precise path-following.
Testing the robot's ability to trace paths of varying complexity.
Exploring how robotics and navigation systems are applied in real-world logistics and delivery systems.
Iterating on designs and programs to improve accuracy and efficiency.
Key Takeaways:
By the end of this class, students will have a strong understanding of how to combine mechanical design and programming to solve navigation challenges. They’ll also gain practical experience with coordinate systems, testing, and iterative design.
