Robotics Phase I (Workshop)

This workshop will be presented in an online format. Registration opens 8/25/2020.
This workshop is designed to prepare middle school teachers to dedicate to building robots, programming robots, assembling the track for robots, practicing moving the robots and changing controls, understanding the rules to the competition, and automating robots for competition. The workshop will include all instructions as
pre-recorded videos. Therefore, online videos will allow individual outreach as well as a flexible work speed for the teachers.
Teachers will be provided with:
• 1 Vex IQ Full Field & Game Element Kit per classroom: This will feature all the required field parts, competition goals, and competition pieces needed for practice.
• 1 Super Kit: Contains all necessary parts to build and control the competition robot. This kit will be a 1 per team, with 4 students ideally on a single team. These kits are able to create multiple robot styles allowing for alternative uses that would benefit after school clubs.
