2/13/2018. This week in iNEST, several teams demonstrated their developing Hummingbird robots with moving sensors/motors and blinking LEDs, triggered by sound and distance sensors. The girls will add finishing touches to their robots over the next couple of weeks, and extension activities have been distributed for teams that are finishing their robots early, including adding virtual elements in Scratch to accompany the physical robot, and incorporating a robot into a Scratch game by working with Scratch variables. In two weeks on March 1st, a couple of teams will be demonstrating their robots at a student showcase held at the state technology conference, NC-TIES. Also happening this week in iNEST, Mrs. Dupree finished collecting permission slips for the club's spring, overnight field trip to the USA Science and Engineering Festival in Washington DC. We're pleased that more than 20 club members will be traveling to the festival this year. Comments are closed.
