Description
This document includes everything you would need for a big unit on Robotics/ Artificial Intelligence and hurricane relief efforts. I use the LEGO Mindstorms Ev3 kits but this project could work with any robotics kit. Included in this packet is:
1 - Guides for designing the hurricane relief zone using butcher paper and common household materials.
2 - A planning sheet for the design of the relief zone.
3 - A description of each of the robotics challenges (Ex: students will fix a washed out bridge). Each challenge is tiered with 3 levels of difficulty so that students may pick based on their ability level. There are 7 challenges in total.
4 - Planning sheets for the challenges. Students plan their building and coding here.
Print one off per challenge.
4 - A soft-skills rubric. Students are evaluated using traits such as problem-solving, resilience, planning and reflection, communication, engagement, creativity and courage. The rubric includes ratings for below standard, approaching standard, at standard, and above standard.
*UPDATE- A buyer requested access to the articles and videos that I used to kick off this unit. They discuss the use of Robotics in current disaster recovery efforts. I have included a link to that slide show presentation at the end of this document.
