Geometric Obstacle Course
Students will build an obstacle course for a robot to traverse using geometry concepts. They will build prisms & cylinders and calculate volume and surface area. Once their obstacle course is built, they will use Edison robots to build an EdTank to traverse their course. Students begin by programming the robot using a remote control. They will then progress to programming the robot using a Scratch based programming language.
