COMPETITIONS

In his seminal work Mindstorms: Children, Computers,

and Powerful Ideas, Piaget adherent Seymour Papertstates that children can learn to use technology in sucha way that it changes how they learn about everythingelse. This means that students not only engage withand retain knowledge about subjects in which theyexcel, but crucially also in those subjects that theypreviously would have seen as diffi cult or abstract.

AS JEAN PIAGET SAID

TO UNDERSTAND IS TO INVENT

DIGITAL WORKBOOKS FOR STUDENTS!Your students capture their work directly insidethe content, creating their own digital workbook.

DIDYOU KNOW...

DIDYOU KNOW ...

that LEGOMINDSTORMSEducation is used from upper

primary school and allthe way through-out

university?

COMPUTER SCIENCE

Programming for real. Intuitive, simpleicon-based programming language andtools that encourage solutions designusing algorithmic problem solving.

Example:Define an algorithm to measureand control behaviour and process.

SCIENCE

Learning by doing.Support classroomteaching by using LEGO MINDSTORMSEducation to collect real-time data toverify a hypothesis.

Example: Carry out experimentsdesigned to determine melting points collect data samples with the temperaturesensor and track and plot the results

using the intuitive graphing environment.

TECHNOLOGY

Actively engage students. Explorereal-life application of technology tomake analogies, identify relationships,predict outcomes, analyse data, anddraw conclusions.

Example:Explore design and functionalityby building and programming the LEGOMINDSTORMS Education EV3 to carry

out controlled actions.

ENGINEERING

From idea to working prototype.Engageyour students in practical, open-endedengineering challenges and open-endedproblem solving.

Example:Carry out a design process,from brief through testing and analysisto creating functional prototypes that canbe easily modified to achieve design goals.

MATHEMATICS

Bringing numbers alive. LEGOMINDSTORMS EV3 is an ideal way toexplore mathematical problems for real,making abstract concepts tangible andconcrete.

Example:Calculate the wheel circumfer-ence of your robot. Then program therobot to move a specific distance using

the rotation sensor feedback multipliedby the circumference.

Sample program solution forteacher

Let your students work with open-endedproblem-solving activities, in a contextthat makes it fun and engaging to learnand use Science, Technology, Engineering,and Mathematics. The Design EngineeringProjects teach science and mathematicsconcepts with soft skills, such as creativethinking, problem solving, teamwork andcommunication skills, boosting 21st centurylearning skills.

All projects follow a design engineeringprocess as used by engineers in various

industries. The design engineering processprovides a structured flow throughout theactivities.

Students are guided through the process,beginning with a design brief that explainsthe challenge. Videos of robots in actionare used to make real-life connections. Thestudents build, program, test and revise,and finally, they communicate their solutionin the final project, which can be sharedand presented. Throughout the process,students gain and use knowledge of

science, technology, and mathematics asthey engineer a solution.

Students capture their work as theymove along in the built-in digitalworkbook, making it easy for you tofollow their progress and to assess theirwork.

DESIGN BRIEF BRAINSTORM SELECT SOLUTION BUILD & PROGRAM TEST & ANALYSE COMMUNICATEREVISE

Students are challenged to design, build, andprogram robots that move using motors withrotation sensors. In five projects studentsapply mathematics and science knowledgeto create robots that measure distance,measure speed, move without using wheels,maximize power to move up an incline, andmove and turn to create regular polygons.Students will also apply their knowledgeof simple and complex machines and useratios to describe proportional relationships.

Students are challenged to add sensorsto their robots to control behaviour and tomeasure, graph, and analyse sensor data.In five projects, students develop robotsthat use sensors to measure ambient andreflected light, distinguish specific colours,measure distance from an object, recognizea touch sensor state (pressed or not pressedor pressed and released), and measureangular displacement or rate of change.

Students are challenged to design, build,and program robotics systems built fromsubsystems. In five projects, studentsdevelop systems that move a ball, pick upand place objects, simulate manufacturing,sort colours, and communicate their location.Students test their system, gather data,and use that evidence to engineer systemoptimizations and improvements.
