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

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

4. 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).

7. How Can Robots be used in the classroom?
Water Filtration

8. Skills necessary for robotics

9. Programming a Robot Using EV3 Software

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

12. 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

13. Rarc and Classroom Robotics: Quick Facts
Students must work together
