Video tutorials with Teacher's Note

How should an instructor use this course when working with students and a group of students in school

There are some fundamental rules that we imagine you would follow while organizing this course with students. Let's look at them.

Note for the teacher on how to organize the class to use different robot base constructions to accomplish the mission for lifting.

When organizing this course the behaviour expectations should be set at the very beginning of the course.

What a teacher must look out for, while students are building a robot from instructions.

Notes on building the FiveMinuteBot

Do your best as a teacher to make sure students are expanding their vocabulary on every occasion.

This is a teacher's note about the math behind calculating gear ratios with for our lifting attachment. It math model we build in previous tutorials is not exactly correct and here is the explanation why.

Sometimes a good teacher needs a few tricks in his sleeve, so that he can surprise and entertain his students.

There are some things to be careful about when your students work with the brick.

We will share the idea behind that challenge and how to conduct the challenge in a classroom.

Note for the teacher on making the construction more stable, more durable and using beams for this.

How to help students implement long programs. 

What should you do as a teacher when the students are calculating the gear ratios and number of needed rotations?

In the EV3-G software, you could use negative numbers for power and rotations. In this episode, we would look at what is the meaning of this numbers and make a few notes of where the teacher must be more careful.

Why we change the robots all the time and what to observe in each new robot.

What is allowed and what is not when building without instructions.

How to place the cup on the robot so that the challenge is challenging.

Present the details

With the last few videos, we entered the math world. Why we do it and what to keep in mind

What should you as a teacher know when the students are trying to achieve a program and robot attachment that could reproduce their behaviour 9 out of 10 times.
