Learning Path

01 / 03

Explore.

Discover the foundations.

The entry path into Big Hero. Students meet mechanisms, motion and logic through hands-on building, and finish able to plan, build and program a working robot.

Program 01

Program One

Build a first working robot through guided mechanics, sensors and block programming.

    Robotics Foundations

    16 Sessions / First contact with robotics concepts and teamwork.

    Objectives

    • Introducing basic robotics concepts
    • Develop problem-solving and teamwork
  2. 02

    LEGO Mechanisms

    16 Sessions / LEGO mechanisms and the first controlled behaviours.

    Objectives

    • Design mechanical parts that can move
    • Control robots with sensors
  3. 03

    Complete Robot Builds

    16 Sessions / Advanced blocks, gears and complete robot builds.

    Objectives
