Intro to Mindstorms EV3

Yay!!!!

HLACNY has gotten two new Mindstorms EV3 education sets that we can use next year at co-op!

...and so I thought I would offer an Intro to Mindstorms EV3 class this fall; an ongoing class that will last four to five sessions and will emphasize coding.

Take a look at the video below to see what kind of activities we will be doing in this class. 




Please parents and students, be advised that homework will be expected from participants in this workshops and that I will post weekly blog entries to keep all of us connected. As you can imagine, some of the projects you saw in the above video are quite complex but, if you do your part, we will be able to cover a lot of material in the brief 40 minutes we get to meet at co-op every week. I expect you (student) to visit our blog regularly to make the most out of our time together in class. I know I can count on you!

Oh, I almost forgot...you can download a free version of the software (retail version) similar to the one we will be using in class (education version) here. If you want to, you can install it in your computer and start becoming familiar with it in preparation for next year. If you prefer to work on a tablet, you can download the free programmer app instead.

See you in the fall of 2016!
