In this video we discuss the durability of the construction of LEGO robots and how do we make them more durable.
We will share the idea behind that challenge and how to conduct the challenge in a classroom.
What should you do as a teacher when the students are calculating the gear ratios and number of needed rotations?
When you first start the EV3 brick, you see the recent programs menu. Let's see what it is all about.
A special fourth case for a turning with robots with two wheels.
In the EV3-G software, you could use negative numbers for power and rotations. In this episode, we would look at what is the meaning of this numbers and make a few notes of where the teacher must be more careful.
How important is it to have predictable behavior in your classes.
Using Display, Sound, Wait and Move blocks together.
Note for the teacher on making the construction more stable, more durable and using beams for this.
It seems obvious and intuitive how to connect the robot and the computer. We must cover that part, so that we are sure you can download our programs to the robot later on.
How to control the speed of the motors and the speed of the robot.
Why we change the robots all the time and what to observe in each new robot.
How to keep the discipline in the classroom and how to cheer up the students.
Following the principles from the previous video, try to make the attachment that you've built, more stable and durable.
How to help students implement long programs.
In the previous video, we found the correct answer for our task and it is 18.75, or is it?
Try to solve the challenge of this module and observe the cup.
We will explain inertia non-scientifically so that we make it easy to understand concept.
There are number of settings in a Move block and now we will focus on the rotations setting
How to use the robot when the buttons are not accessible.
Experiment with the software for about five minutes, before we even give you any directions.
In this video, we introduce two pieces: beam with pins and the angular beam with pins
Overview of the big task that we want to achieve in this module.
With the last few videos, we entered the math world. Why we do it and what to keep in mind
