Course Description
When your students are part of Computer Explorers’ Creative Answers Kids Engineering Company (CAKE) , they are divided into engineering teams where they will learn collaboration and teamwork. Each team receives a daily Engineering Work Request where they will be required to use higher order thinking skills to complete the assigned task.
Teams will use WeDo construction sets and apply basic principles of engineering, robotics, simple machines and programming to reach their goals.
During the construction and programming of their WeDo robots, the students will need to select parts and programming blocks that match those found in a visual set of directions. They will need to pay close attention to detail to build these models successfully. They will also learn to work together as a team for a common goal.
