Empowering Education By Reasoning with Robots

This is an exploration of engineering, computer programming basics, and Engineering Design Process. Students document progress in an Engineer’s Journal. The activities will culminate in a day at MUSC Health Professions and Research Center to see robots in occupational therapy. Goal: greater understanding of communication skills, group work, importance of planning, future career options in engineering, and the chance to develop technology skills and programming basics.

Week 1 of Blogging!! Sept. 7, 2011

My LEGOs arrived this week from Tufts Center for Engineering Education and Outreach! Hooray! I am currently studying LabView programming for the LEGO activities on my labtop, and designing my first lesson plan. Mrs. Neel and Mrs. Kainz are helping me put together a pool of available students who would be willing to work with me this year. Once I get that group together we will set our first meeting date. I have 2 computers in the Ashley Hall lab already designated for my project, onto which I need to download the LabView software. Thats all for now! It has been a productive week. My goal for the end of next weekend is to have my lesson plan drafted.
