Students). There are Junior, Middle and Senior School units, all
lasting approximately 6-8 weeks. Some lessons overlap across the
3 levels of schooling – but there are a number of new lessons at
each level. The lessons are all based on NXT-G and are designed
to follow on from specific activities in Robot Educator. Of
particular note is: - “Four Poles Challenge” - one of the most
successful resources I have used for introducing Robotics to
students and teachers alike. - A learning based approach to Line
Following using one and two light sensors (as opposed to the
more prescriptive approach in Robot Educator). -A very simple,
yet effective “Remote Control” for the EduBot that you can use
in the classroom. -Reference to other robotics resources such as
PowerPoint ideas, Robot films, excursions and NXT Books. -
Whilst the program objectives, understanding goals, essential
outcomes etc. are specif
