COURSE OUTLINE in ELECTIVE 10 (ROBOTICS)

I. DESCRIPTION

The course "Exploring Robotics with LEGO EV3/Makeblock" is aimed to introduce students in the tenth grade to the fascinating field of robotics
through the utilization of the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 platform. Students will acquire a strong foundation in robotics, programming, and problem-
solving through the use of hands-on exercises, creative challenges, and learning focused on project-based activities. The discussion of the topic is
divided up into two quarters and consists of eight modules. Module 1: Introduction to Robotics; Module 2: Building Your Robot; Module 3:
Programming Fundamentals; Module 4: Sensing and Perception; Module 5: Autonomous Navigation; Module 7: Project Phase; Module 8: Project
Presentation.
