Session Schedule & Learning Process The below describes the standard schedule and learning process of each Robotics Club session, to best support students’ learning. While the content will change depending on the robotics challenge and matching Personal and Social Capability teamwork skill, this schedule and learning process will remain constant. Session Element Steps Introduction Introduce visual schedule of the session, e.g. 5 minutes 3:15pm Introduction – 3:20pm Planning – 3:30pm Robotics Challenge – 3:50pm Halfway Monitoring – 4:15pm Evaluation & Pack Up – Briefly outline or review the Club rules (refer to poster). If necessary, teachers facilitate formation of new teams and record new team and robot names. Play the Robotics Challenge video clip on projector. Planning Briefly introduce the specific teamwork skill, learning 10 15 minutes – intention and success criteria (refer to Student Reflection Sheet and/or Monitoring Chart). What does it look like? How Teachers demonstrate/model the skill (e.g. through role can I achieve this? play, or giving examples of language. You may choose to demonstrate meeting OR not meeting the success criteria). Students evaluate the teacher(s) against the success criteria. Students generate their own demonstration/examples of how to meet the success criteria (e.g. through a “think, pair, share” activity; use discretion as to whether students are ready to demonstrate in front of the group, this is not necessary). Depending on the Robotics Challenge, you may choose to prompt students to use the Robot Design Process to plan their Robotics Challenge before beginning working time (add 5 minutes to Planning time).
