This LEGO project will make a difference in my students' learning as they participate in STEM activities that incorporate concepts across the curriculum while developing in critical thinking, creativity, and collaboration skills.
As students actively engage in LEGO Mindstorm experiences, learning outcomes will be evident as they:
1.understand & benefit hands-on/student friendly technology and their lives
2.understand & benefit from immersion in a problem solving environment
3.develop an understanding of many types of common skills necessary to creating, programming, and operating a self-built robotic device
Most of my students do not have even basic LEGO sets in their homes, so the introduction of simple LEGO robotics and programming will literally amaze and transform them. They can learn to code robots for simple tasks and explore areas of science (simple machines) while they hone their skills for futuristic STEM opportunities.
