Developing Predictive Models
by Amanda Sibley
In this lesson students will collect data on the performance of their drone. Students will design a systematic process of data collection that will then lead to the development of a predictive model that they can use to predict a power and time duration that would be required to move the drone through a constructed maze. The purpose of this lesson is for students to strategically collect data and look for a regular pattern that can be used to describe that pattern. This will ultimately not be efficient enough to accurately control the drone which will then require learning about coding and sensor integration.
This is lesson 5 in the coding drones lesson sequence.
