About the Course
V5 Foundation I and II are focused on engineering and coding. It will first expose students to building the Speedbot robot. They will use this robot to begin studying mathematical concepts, the engineering design process, and programming skills. Students will first design a scaled racetrack for their Speedbot and then proceed to build an extension to add to its design. Once the students have gained experience with the build, they will program the robot to drive forward, in reverse, turn left, and turn right all at different velocities. Once the students have experience building and programming the Speedbot, then they will then learn to build the Clawbot. The Clawbot has a similar base to the Speedbot, but allows for more manipulation with the addition of the Arm and Claw. With the Clawbot, students will first explore how to build it and then use it to study artistic skills, the engineering design process, science skills, and programming skills. Students will first use the Clawbot to draw and then proceed to program it to maneuver obstacles utilizing the Arm and Claw. Students will also explore the Vision Sensor and its capabilities while learn important programming concepts such as loops and conditionals. Students will also gain experience utilizing the Controller with the Drive Program.
