Our LEGO® Robotics Classes
101 FOUNDATIONS
Robot Trainer Lab
For students who have never been exposed to LEGO® robotics.
They will learn the basics of building and programming autonomous robots. Each lesson introduces a new extension to be built onto the Driving Base. These extensions enable it to detect obstacles, move objects, follow lines, and turn by precise angles.
201 INTERMEDIATE
Robot Engineering Lab
For students who have been exposed to robotics in the past.
They will build and program several robots that can be “trained” it to respond differently to different interactions or stimuli, built with their own designs and functions, and will dlve deeper into STEM concepts.
301 ADVANCED
Robot Design Lab
For students who are ready to compete at high-levels of competition.
They will continue building on their knowledge with advanced models and programming. The students will walk through a previous LEGO® Robotics Competition from start to finish to prepare for actual competitions.
