Re: Team 25 Lego Camp wants help

If you are looking to obtain additional kits to use in your robotics camp, I might suggest you take a look at the Lego-Dacta Robolab kit. This kit is the educational market version of the retail Mindstorms kit. As far as I know, the Robolab software runs on all versions of Windows as well as the Mac OS. A program written with Robolab looks like a program flowchart and may make it easier for students to visualize the logical flow of a program.

Additionally you may want to visit the following website:

http://www.hightechkids.org

This is the Lego League website for the state of Minnesota. On this site they have a set of 6 weekly lesson plans which can be incorporated into a science currriculum. They cover a wide range of topics such as basic Lego construction, the physics and math of gear ratios and basic programming techniuqes. You may wish to adapt them for your use.

If you have any additional questions, please feel free to contact me.
