Engineering Levels
With different levels to graduate from starting as a Junior Engineer, your engineer will begin an exciting journey into the world of STEM.
Mastering the Fundamentals
Every great journey begins with that first step! These first levels introduce both the robotics and coding aspects of the curriculum, while building up essential core skills: spatial awareness, critical thinking, problem solving, and independence. Students work with RoKids+ and learn to master the basics, while building towards more complex engineering skills.
Increasing in Complexity
Scaffolding up in difficulty, it’s time for the students to start taking the concepts they’ve gotten exposed to and apply them to their own creations. These levels continue to provide students with a combination of both fun robotics activities and challenging coding-related hurdles, using RoComi, for them to overcome. By the end of Advanced Engineer, students will be Engineering Experts!
Expert Level
Welcome to the big leagues! Having mastered RoComi, it’s time to introduce the next coding program, Scratch-based coding! Students will be mastering RoCode and the ultimate challenge! Students will put everything they’ve learned to the test by figuring out solutions for themselves.
The Big Ideas
We are learning a lot in Robotics Club. Here are a few of the highlights.
Components and Mechanics
Unlike other programs that use LEGO’s and off the shelf-parts, RoboThink’s around the world have the competitive advantage of offering STEM programs based off of RoboThink’s proprietary hardware. Students learn about gears, mainboards, wiring, switches and more while fostering a love for science and robotics.
STEM Concepts
RoboThink has the most extensive STEM content in the industry. Our team of content publishers give careful consideration to our educational value and art quality. Our curriculm is always moving foward. It’s a difference educators, parents and students can see. Students learn STEM concepts with every lesson, including infrared light, kinetic energy, aerodynamics, energy transfer and more!
Exclusive Coding
RoboThink is the only STEM education company with our own suite of proprietary coding education software. Students learn our suite of coding software including RoKids+, RoComi and RoCode. That doesn’t mean students won’t understand other systems. Concepts learned at RoboThink robotics and coding translate into other popular programming languages.
