C-STEM Robotics-Math Program: Grades 9-12
The C-STEM Robotics-Math Program for high school students enables accelerated and deeper math learning through collaborative robotics projects (multiple students use different devices to control the same robotic system they create on their own to accomplish a task), RoboPlay challenges, electronics and Arduino projects, and solving real-world problems using math concepts. The participants will also learn teamwork, communication, presentation, and leadership skills. At the end of the program, student teams create a multimedia presentation using a robotic system to illustrate some abstract math concepts and present them to parents and peers.
The curriculum for this program includes:
- Mathematics
- Linear Relationships
- Systems of Linear Equations
- Geometric Transformations
- Exponential Functions
- Polynomial Functions
- Transformation of Linear and Polynomial Functions
- Piecewise Functions
- Statistical Data Analysis and Visualization
- Electronics and Arduino
- Coding
- Principles of Engineering
- Science
- Art
- Music
- Sensor-Based Robotics Using LArduino (optional)
