LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Education NXT

“One of the best things about Carnegie Melon curriculum for LEGO® MINDSTORMS® Education NXT and ROBOTC® is the ease of differentiating instruction. The class basically teaches itself with me as a troubleshooter. At first, it helps me focus on the kids that need more help. Then, the kids’ competitive nature takes over and no matter what their reading, math, or other subject level is, they all excel. I develop challenges or infuse science concepts at teachable moments. These moments are more memorable when challenges and concepts solve a problem or connect to real-world applications.”

Farrell Rogers,
Middle School Science Teacher

Use robotics to bring science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) to life for students!

This curriculum supports beginning robotics students, with a dual emphasis on programming and standards-based academic STEM concepts. Each of the six projects begins with a robotics research prototype in which students are guided step-by-step through the building and programming of a new robot behavior. Afterwards, they follow up their prototype work with a robotics investigation in which the students experiment with the robot’s motors, sensors, and programming to learn how robots really work.

Introduction to Mobile Robotics comes as a two-CD set. The Student CD includes:

  • 18 lessons supported by video tutorials
  • Building instructions and programming assistance
  • Explanatory animations for each sensor
  • Worksheets and data tables for each lesson

The Teacher CD includes:

  • Teacher notes and implementation suggestions
  • Handouts and introductory PowerPoint presentations (editable!) for each lesson
  • Quizzes, answer keys (with in-depth explanations), and evaluation rubrics
  • Alignment to math, science, technology, and communications standards

MINDSTORMS® Education Robotics Engineering I: Introduction to Mobile Robotics curriculum is sold as a classroom license and enables the teacher to place the curriculum on every computer in a single classroom. Developed by Carnegie Mellon Robotics Academy.
