Let’s build robots! Students will combine their engineering skills, need for speed, and art power to create a propeller car, a spinning Bristlebot, a robot car, or an auto coloring wigglebot! We will use simple circuit elements like batteries, LEDS, wires, switches, and motors in combination with everyday products and recyclable materials. Students will combine these materials to build their own unique robots. Together we will learn the basics of robotics, simple circuits, and artistic design.
Note: This class is designed for middle school students. The Sally Ride Science Junior Academy courses are designed to inspire young adults to pursue careers in STE[+a]M.
