Unit 7: Problem Solving with Robots
IN THIS LESSON
I can use technology to produce creative solutions to problems.
Follow the directions in the WeDo app to program your robotic hand. Test it by trying to pick up objects in the room. Then, answer these questions.
What does your robotic arm do well?
What does your robotic arm struggle with?
What improvements can you make to the robot or the program to improve it?
Next, make improvements to the arm and test it again.
