Train-the-Trainer Workshop (T3)



Educational robotics is an effective tool to introduce integrated science, technology, engineering, and mathematics concepts to students. 

The workshops provide the educators with a solid foundation to build upon for their programs.  We developed custom Train-the-Trainer workshops for educators. In the workshops, Engineering Design concepts are introduced with hands-on applications using LEGO® MindStorms. 

​

The T3 Workshop Includes:

• Presentations

• Discussion on learning styles

• Effective team building strategies

• End of program robotics showcase competitions 

​

T3 Workshop Objectives:

• Demonstrate engineering design principles through a water robotic curriculum using LEGO® MindStorm platforms.

• Guide through hands-on practices for effective learning & licensed curriculum.

• Engage in a simulated robotics competition to implement engineering designs concepts.

• Facilitate a Train-the-Trainer session to develop a water robotic curriculum based on your needs and area of expertise.

​

T3 Workshop Participants will be able to:

• Define main components of LEGO® MindStorm platforms.

• Demonstrate how components can be assembled into robot to exhibit certain functions & behaviors.

• Apply engineering designs and concepts to robotics.

• Compare design alternatives in terms of performance, select the best alternative, and explain the reason.

• Design robots to perform given mission statements.

• Evaluate different designs in terms of overall performance.
