STEM at RSAE
The middle school students at RSAE took advantage of the STEM experiences by using robots to determine force, motion, mass, and acceleration. Students coded robots to simulate a game of miniature golf and basketball. The scholars also used their robots to stack boxes within a given space using the provided parameters. Students had to determine the amount of force to use with the robot to "putt" a ball into the hole. Additionally, students were challenged to use the robot's arm to stack boxes and "shoot" the ball into the basket. Students used their communication, collaboration, and critical thinking skills to work as a team and code the robots.
