Begin writing the first part of a program that will use variables and subroutines. 9-3. Describe the advantages of variables and subroutines. Activity 10 10-1. Finish writing the second part of the program that was begun in Activity 9, which includes adding "if input" statements and labels. 10-2. Teach the 11 positions needed for this task. 10-3. Test and, if necessary, troubleshoot the program. 10-4. Verify that the program does the following things:
In Activity 15, students will take the Vocabulary Test and the Post-test. Activity 11 through Activity 15 require students to complete challenges to meet numerous high level problem-solving objectives. The objectives for the challenges in this CPU include: Challenge 1 You will conduct research on a career of your choice in the robotics technology field. Share your findings in a presentation. Challenge 2 You will modify the program you worked on in Activity 9 and Ten to include a buzzer that notifies you when there are no blocks in the parts feeder. Challenge 3 Based on the specifications below, you will create your own robotic program. Challenge 4 You will write the program you designed in Challenge 3. Challenge 5 You will use the Internet to search for at least five different kinds of robots. |
