Initial instructions for participants Today when using the kits – each pair is using one kit with all the pieces you need. Please don’t mix pieces between kits – each kit has the same pieces don’t share between kits – if you don’t have a piece please ask me this is important (as it can get messy) Safety – please be careful as we power cords set up in the room today. Today is a brief introduction quick look at LEGO EV3. To start off today we will 1 st part – Build a simple robot called ‘Riley Rover; 2 nd part –Program the robot to do some simple tasks 3 rd part –Rescue (object of your choice) through an obstacle course

UQ Robogals Dr Damien Kee - Domabotics GU Funding Staff training School holiday sessions Under 8’s week sessions Book Week sessions Positives and challenges: mix of participants; demand is high; great reception by staff; equipment availability; cost vs time =long term good investment; It is coding but linked to the physical!! Learning through discovery, experiment and play!! Really is social!!
