Junior Robotics III & IV (AGES 10-14)

The structure of the activities in the curriculum mimics the engineering design process used by scientists and engineers in many industries in conjunction with the preparation of a planned robotics competition in the Great Toronto Area. Each project starts with a design brief explaining the challenge, uses videos of robots in action to make real-world connections, and culminates in a final project that can be shared and presented. Throughout the process, students gain and use knowledge of science, technology, and mathematics as they engineer a solution. This structure is designed to help students develop the 21st-century, creative-thinking, problem-solving, teamwork, and communication skills required for success in school and beyond.

The curriculum will lead students to learn programming through different fun challenges. Furthermore, students will have opportunities to build and program robots to prepare for the competition.

Key Learning Values:

• Learn and use engineering design process skills
• Participate in robotics competitions in Great Toronto Area;
• Understand the core concepts of technology
• Plan and manage activities to develop a solution to complete a project
• Understand the role of troubleshooting, invention and innovation, and experimentation in problem-solving
• Demonstrate creative thinking and construct knowledge using technology
• Use digital media and environments to communicate and work collaboratively
• Develop basic teamwork while preparing for competition
• Improve communication skills through team-based projects

In the training program, all students are REQUIRED TO BRING THEIR LAPTOPS, MACBOOKS, IPADS, CHROMEBOOKS AND TABLETS, so that they can download group licensed software and program themselves guided by the Boswin instructor.

Guidelines of Program

• Junior Robotics III

This level will enhance their learning into understanding, using complex data structures and completing assigned challenges. This level will prepare students for competitive learning on the FLL game table, approaching the missions with smart game strategies and time-based techniques. Students will also have access to the opportunity to build fantastic contraptions for completing missions and earning game points.

• Junior Robotics IV
  

Data Logging techniques, Renewable energy resources and Pneumatics machines are important and highly desired STEM concepts. This level will aid students in learning these techniques blended with Robotics. Programming data loggers, observing the change in environmental conditions by recording, analyzing and altering parameters to use the data for maximum benefit of humans. Designing a pneumatic catapult to maximize the target distance, engineering a scissor lift to reach the highest point marked and solar-powered cars are some of the projects that will be part of this level.
