Re: Robotics or related engineering courses
Thanks for all the responses! Its nice to post something and have people actually read/respond.
I saw Dos Pueblos on the UC accreditation site (which we go through to get new courses approved). Very impressive curriculum. My school has Earth Sci, Bio, Chem, Phys, AP Bio, APES, and this year AP Physics (which I teach). I personally wouldn't be teaching an engineering/robotics course. Our newer physics teacher has real-world experience in that field. I'd like to add a bio-mechanics course in conjunction with physiology (could make for some interesting bio-robotics!).
I just wanted to get a feel how many schools did straight engineering with FRC as a side project versus a specific robotics course. Seems like a multi-year "academy" style approach is more popular.
Thanks again!
