  2. Mr. Shea • New Jersey Institute of Technology • Bachelors Degree in Architecture. • Worked as an Architect • Taught 8th Grade Algebra • Lakeside Middle School – Pompton Lakes, NJ • Taught Pre-Engineering & CAD Drafting • Glen Rock High School & Middle School – Glen Rock, NJ • Other Interests • Hockey • Architecture / Engineering

  3. Introduction to Robotics • Using the LEGO Mindstorm EV3 system • This year…Introduction to Robotics • Next year… High School Robotics 1 class & Robotics Club • RoboCup & FIRST Robotics Challenge

  4. Welcome 8th Grade Robotics Project Based Learning Creative Problem Solving Group Work

  5. Robotics 8 What kind of class is this? • A class that will allow students to design and build creative solutions to real-world problems. The course will encourage students to blend their knowledge form previous subjects such as art, math, and science to find a artistic, innovative way to solve the problem at hand. • Hopefully, students will gain a basic understanding of Robotics and demonstrate the tools and skills needed to successfully design and program a robot. • STAYING ON TASK IS IMPORTANT

  6. What You Will Need For Class • Folder / 3 ring binder • ½ or 1 inch thick, specifically for this class • Used for: • KEEP EVERYTHING RELATED TO THE CLASS AND PROJECTS. • Taking notes • Storing handouts • Something to write with EVERY DAY • Pen / Pencil • Creative thinking

  7. Class Website www.MrSheasPage.weebly.com Information on the class. Activity Sheets available for reprinting Quizzes and Test

  8. Quizzes & Tests PRE-TEST 40 multiple choice questions Not used as a grade SGO Baseline What is a Robot Quiz 10 multiple choice questions Robot Construction & Motion 10 multiple choice questions Robot Programming 10 multiple choice questions Robot Sensors 10 multiple choice questions POST-TEST 40 multiple choice questions Used as students’ final grade for the class SGO assessment of knowledge gained since Pre-Test.

  9. Classwork Grading DAILY ROBOTICS LOG - 2 points per day. 1 point for what you write 1 point for what the teacher observes of you working each day. (x 5 days = 10 points per week x 10 weeks = 100 points) Fill in what you did each period this week. Include everything you worked on including successes, setbacks and failures. If you were absent or in pull-out for the day, write that. You must use a minimum of 3 sentences. The more you write, the better your class participation grade will be.

  10. “The JOURNEY is just as important as the DESTINATION.” Different ways to measure a project’s success. A creative solution to a problem/ project is just as important as a polished, finished project. Good process = Good result Keeping track of successes and failures Class Notebook…DOCUMENT EVERYTHING IN YOUR DAILY JOURNAL SHEETS

  11. Class Dismissal You are dismissed by your teacher. Not the bell. The teacher will announce when there are 10 minutes left. –At that ,you should begin to finish work on your project for the day, start cleaning up the classroom, and updating your daily log. The teacher will announce when there are 5 minutes left in class. –At that time, project work for the day should be completed, everyone should be cleaning up and updating their daily log. – DO NOT LINE UP AT THE DOOR Wait until you hear the teacher dismiss you. – You will not be dismissed until everything is cleaned up and everyone is seated. If you leave before being dismissed, you will be written up.

  12. “Act like and ADULT and • you will be treated like one.“ Bottom Line Mr. Shea says:

  13. Team Building Activity Groups are randomly selected Use only the given number of cups Stack them on top of each other as high as you can in the taped out area You may stand on the seat of a stationary chair. NO STOOLS, COUNTERS, OR ROLLING CHAIRS This Activity is meant to be challenging Push your limits. Show the teacher what you’ve done and push it higher. Failure is allowed. Just start again. 8th Grade Record : 25 cups 7th Grade Record: 21 cups
