Robotics Engineering
Rising Grades 4 to 6
Use engineering to evolve robots.
Use the engineering process to invent and refine robots such as GolfBot, SpinBot, EducatorBot, TrackBot, and GyroBot.
Learn about torque, force, gear ratios, EV3 programming, sensors, robot vision, treads, and gyroscopes.
This course is for students who enjoy designing, testing, and improving mechanical systems, and those who like hands-on challenges and are ready to think like engineers. With structured guidance and creative freedom, students gain confidence in both building and programming robots.
Students explore force, torque, gears, motors, and sensors while designing EV3 robots to complete a variety of challenges. They follow the engineering design process to brainstorm, prototype, test, and refine their creations. Programming lessons help them connect logic and movement in meaningful ways.
Students leave with stronger engineering skills and pride in the robots they designed and improved.
