This year, Robogals developed three new workshop programs. All of our workshop content and resources are created in-house. Each workshop is designed with two versions: an easier version for primary and intermediate school students, and a more advanced version for high school students. We also hold dedicated training sessions to prepare our amazing Robogals volunteers. You can explore the different types of workshops we have recently conducted below.
The workshop involves students first engaging in truss design brainstorming, then building a bridge using popsicle sticks and various types of adhesives. The bridge will be considered successfully built if it meets the design criteria outlined by the “client dimensional specification” and if an Mbot can drive over the bridge without any failure.
Students will program the mBot using mBlock. The mBot will be designed to autonomously navigate a given path. Throughout the workshop, students will be introduced to the concept of SMART technology—System of Monitoring, Analysis, and Response Technology—while also learning the basics of coding.
In this workshop, students will explore fundamental kinematics concepts such as speed, distance, time, and angles. The focus is on applying mathematics in a practical way. The goal is for students to calculate the correct time and angles needed for a Sphero Bolt robot to navigate the path and knock down bowling pins at the end.
This workshop introduces students to Morse code by combining coding and robotics using M-bots through the mBlock platform. Students will learn to program the M-bot to send and receive simple Morse code messages, enhancing their understanding of both coding logic and communication systems.
