We Can: Identify STEM Investigate engineering and engineering design Explore ways to use robotics in the classroom and in competition

What is STEM? Interdisciplinary approach to Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Problems solving, exploring, experimenting, PBL, and inquiry 4Cs- Creativity, Collaboration, Critical Thinking, Communication

The Silent E Engineering is the building and designing of things we use. Engineers are problem solvers. They plan, make, build, construct, and/or develop products (e.g. machines, building, structures, and systems).

Engineering Design Process

How Can Robots be used in the classroom? Water Filtration

Skills necessary for robotics

Programming a Robot Using EV3 Software

RARC- Local Robotics Competition The Regional Autonomous Robotics Circuit (RARC) is a series of three competitions for students in grades 3-12. The competitions build upon one another and allow students to showcase their STEM skills.

RARC

Rarc and Classroom Robotics: Quick Facts Teams should be 3-5 Every student should have a job Jobs can include: captain, builder, materials manager, recorder Everyone on the team should be able to do all of the jobs and have necessary skills

Rarc and Classroom Robotics: Quick Facts Students must work together Students need to adhere to all rules and safety guidelines For competition- Teams must use laptop(s) Chromebooks are not laptops
