(G2-3) VEX GO STEM
The VEX GO platform is designed for elementary school students and aims to introduce them to the basics of robotics and engineering through hands-on activities.
-
Introduction to Robotics: Basic concepts of robotics, understanding the components of a robot, and an overview of the VEX GO system.
-
Building Skills: Hands-on activities that involve building and assembling VEX GO robots. Students learn about different mechanical structures, use of connectors, and other building techniques.
-
Programming Basics: Introduction to programming VEX GO robots using a simple and age-appropriate programming language or graphical interface. Students may learn how to control the movements and actions of their robots.
-
STEM Concepts: Integration of STEM concepts, including basic principles of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. The curriculum may use practical examples related to the robot-building process.
-
Teamwork and Collaboration: Many VEX GO programs encourage teamwork and collaboration. Students may work in groups to design, build, and program their robots, fostering communication and cooperation.
-
Exploration of Sensors: Introduction to basic sensors and how they can be used to enhance the functionality of robots. Students may learn to incorporate sensors into their robot designs.
