The purpose of the Robotics program is to provide an opportunity for students to explore the area of Robotics including production technology, manufacturing, and its associated careers. In this year-long course, students will be immersed in completing a project that connects STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) topics to the real-world. Using the interactive curriculum, students work through the course to help them build teamwork, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. Students will acquire the skills they need in relation to designing, building, programming, testing, and operating a robot. Each semester of the course culminates in an event where students present what they have learned and use their robot to compete in a class mini game based on the current season’s competitive challenge.
