High School and Post Secondary STEM & Robotics Curriculum
We inspire a rigorous college and career-relevant experience through STEM
Robotics in the everyday classroom in a format that can impact each and every
student.
Introduce students to the foundations of robotics with easy to assemble and modify
rovers that emphasize real-world applications. Working collaboratively using the
Engineering Design Process, students build and program advanced robots to tackle
impressive challenges. As they explore mechanical engineering, electrical engineering,
and programming, students also analyze the robot’s physics, mathematical and scientific
elements.
o 2 lab options: 4 or 6-wheel drive
o Each lab is one semester (90 hours of curriculum) with seven units, designed
for 3-5 students
Spark and Sustain Students' Interest in STEM
MINDS-i Robotics engages students in an energizing STEM learning environment with
easy to build, program, and modify robots. Technologically advanced rovers and drones
perform impressive real-world tasks that build excitement for STEM careers. The
curriculum encourages collaborative problem-solving and the open-source Arduino®
C++ programming language fosters endless creativity. With outstanding technical
support, teachers are empowered and students are inspired to build whatever they
envision in their “mind’s eye.”
Course Design
Each lab is one semester and designed for 3-5 students. Foundations is the
recommended prerequisite to the Drones Lab + Curriculum.
STEM Integrated Robotics Foundations covers a multitude of
engineering concepts including:
o Programming
o Physics
o Mechanical Systems
o Electrical and Electronic Systems
o Hands on Activities and Capstone Projects in each Semester
