Capture the Edison Flag
Notes
Prerequisites:
This lesson requires prior experience with Edison Robots.
Context:
This lesson can be taught to a single class or used in an after-school coding/robotics club.
Students should be given several days to complete the “design and construct” portion of this lesson.
The lesson finishes with a competition day followed by a day to reflect.
Objectives:
This week we will:
-Work with partners to design an obstacle course to protect our flag from opponents.
-Work with partners to modify our robot in order to capture an opponent’s flag.
-Objectively evaluate our design in order to make it better.
-Share with the class how we collaborated to complete our goal.

Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
In this hands-on lesson, students will be challenged to complete an obstacle course with a Sphero/RVR/Edison through coding. Students will be given a task list to complete and will be timed. Math
