Post Re: NEED help robotics class content - teachers and content creators

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for the info and link. This is the type of thing we are looking to create. We cannot use their materials as they are owned, copyrighted and they have fees for these materials.

We are looking to create these types of classes and have them be free to FIRST students, teachers and mentors. We are looking for people who can help with content as I am a designer and not a robotics/engineering content expert. We want to have accurate data and information that we are teaching.

Thanks for your information though, it gave me something interesting to look at and consider as we start our mockups.

Diane

Re: NEED help robotics class content - teachers and content creators

Before you dismiss the CMU materials, it may be in your best interests to contact them. The folks there have been very helpful and certainly know their stuff when we have communicated with them in the past. Their pricing is so reasonable and the curriculum is some of the easiest I've had the pleasure to work with. Perhaps they would release some of the materials or assist. It cannot hurt to ask.
