 Course Syllabus

​

​Design, build and program some advanced robots using the VEX EDR Robotics Platform. Students will focus on engineering & ROBOTC programming in this class and will use VEX EDR robot sets (actual physical EDR robots, we do not use software simulators) to program autonomous robots to complete complex challenges. Students will learn how to solve robotics missions & challenges for robotic competitions by programming your VEX robot equipped with Sensors, Motors, and other attachments.

This hands-on class is a great way to master robotics, engineering & programming using science and math.

In Level-1 class, students will learn the fundamentals of VEX EDR robotics, including VEX robotics subsystems, how to build robots, and how to wire different robot ports. After getting a good hang of the mechanical side of robotics, they will move to the programming side, where they will learn the robotic coding concepts, including variables, data types, control statements, loops, etc., and how to control their robot using the code. Along the way, they will also work on solving VEX EDR competitions-style robotic missions & challenges. 

In Level-2, students will go deeper into the robot programming concepts like complex loops, breaks, and functions. They will also learn sensor programming and start installing and coding sensors on the robot. They will also learn the techniques and strategies to solve VEX EDR competitions-style robotic challenges effectively. In this level, students will start working on complex VEX EDR competitions-style robotic missions & challenges. 

In Level-3, students will learn advanced robotics programming and write complex subroutines and functions in the code to solve complex challenges. Robots will be equipped with multiple sensors, and they have to solve challenges in a time-constrained manner. At this level, the challenges will become complex VEX EDR competition-style, and the time-constrained will be the same as in actual high school competitions.​​​​​​
