Overview:
The goal of this lesson is to provide students with a Group Challenge, the Robo-Zoo, that will require coordinated effort across the entire class to achieve success. Students will design the Zoo layout/exhibit-types, select animals for each team to research, then design, build and program their animatronic creations using the Engineering Process.
Objectives:
The students will be able to:
1. Coordinate the design of Zoo exhibits with classmates
2. Research the physical characteristics and behavior of a selected animal
3. Design a robot that will mimic the physical characteristics of a selected animal
4. Write an EV3-G program that will mimic the behavior of a selected animal
