Munster Lego League Overview:
|
|
|
Munster Lego League is a program, which organizes and coaches teams for
Munster school children, grades 4 thru 8 to compete in the national
FIRST LEGO League robotics competition. FIRST LEGO League is a robotics
competition for 9 to 14 year old children. The children will be directly
involved with science and technology through hands-on experimentation.
They will be using LEGO Mindstorms kits which include LEGO elements such
as sensors, motors, and gears. Teams gain hands-on experience in science
and engineering principles as they construct and program unique robotic
designs. The teams, using scientific methods, will explore solutions to
a real world problem, which is revealed each year to all teams in the
fall (early September). Each of the teams will be responsible for completing
three tasks required for competition, formal project presentation, mechanical
robot design, and control software for the mechanical design.
