TeamSports

Credit:1

In this class, students will get a more in-depth look into team sports, their history, and the strategies behind them. Basketball, soccer, baseball, volleyball, flagfootball,teamhandball,and lacrosse will be the focus of this semester-long class. Individual sports such as tennis and badminton will also be covered. Sport-specific skills, rules of the game, and specific strategies will be taught. Students will be graded on participation, preparation, and sportsmanship as well aswrittenassignmentsandquizzes/tests.

Robotics&Engineering

MSRobotic/Engineering I-WhatareAutomationandRobotics?

The field of automation and robotics includes computer-controlled machines used to make manufacturing more efficient, productive, and safe. Robots are also used as assistive tools for people with disabilities and as equipment in hospitals to help with surgery,todeliverfood,orto dispense medications. Robots are becoming popular household helpers, performing chores like vacuuming and mowing lawns.Scientistssaythatfuture-generationrobotscancleanup,takeout the trash, or even care for an elderly parent. In this unit,studentswilllearnhowautomationand robotics positively and negatively affect everyday life, including safety, comfort, choices, and attitudes about a technology’s development and use. Also in this course, students learn about Introduction to Engineering (Engineering and Technology, Technological Resources and Systems), and Communicating Engineering Ideas(TheEngineeringProcess,FreehandTechnical Sketching). Introduction to Programming Languages such as C++, Python, VR Vexcode, and VEXCodeEXP VEXEXPRoboticsExperimentalExperiencewithCS2n.organdVEXRobotics Curriculum.

MSRoboticsII/EngineeringII-MechanicalSystems

Prerequisite: MSRobotic/Engineering I

Think about a bicycle, an eggbeater, a sewing machine, a hand-cranked drill, and a workshop vice. What do they have in common? All of them have at least one mechanism that provides movement. If the devices were taken apart, you would find a series of gears that redirect the applied force so they can accomplish their tasks. The activities in this lesson will introduce the students to several mechanisms that are used to change speed, torque, force, type ofmovement, and direction of movement. These mechanisms have been developed over time to address the need for changes in machine tools, robots, automobiles, airplanes, etc. Also in this course, students learn about Communicating Engineering Ideas (Review the Engineering Process and Freehand Technical Sketching, Pictorial Sketching, and Reverse Engineering), Modeling Engineering Designs(Parametric Modeling, and Prototyping), TheUseofEnergyinEngineering (Energy, Sustainable Architecture, Transfer of Energy, Fluid Power, and Flight and Space). Intermediate Programming Languages such as C++, Python, VR Vexcode, and VEXCode EXP VEXEXPRoboticsExperimentalExperiencewithCS2n.organdVEXRoboticsCurriculum.

MSRoboticsIII/EngineeringIII-AutomatedSystems

Prerequisite: MSRoboticsII/EngineeringII

Computer programs and sensing devices provide feedback to guide tools and machines in the manufacturing of parts. Automated systems can be used to pick up a part, move it to a certain location, wait for a process to be performed, pick it back up, and deliver it to an offloading location. Upon completion of this lesson, students will have a better understanding of the necessary components of a flexible manufacturing system and the programming necessary for communication between the sensors, motors, and building components. Also in this course, students learn about Communicating Engineering Ideas (Briefly review of the Engineering Process, Freehand Technical Sketching, Pictorial Sketching, and Reverse Engineering), Modeling Engineering Designs(Briefly review of Parametric Modeling, and Prototyping), Electricity and Electronics (Electrical Theory, Electrical Circuits, and Electronics), and Production Systems (Manufacturing - using the VEX V5 Workcell, Robotics, Automation, and Emerging Technologies).
