Sensation Visit - Robolab Workshop
On Thursday 22nd November, 40 second year Computing pupils visited the Sensation Science Centre to participate in Robolab Workshops, explore the exhibition and enjoy the spectacular, on the spot science shows. These hands-on workshops gave pupils the opportunity to use sophisticated Lego Mindstorm robot buggies. They focused on programming the robots to move around and respond to special light sensors and provided an enjoyable insight into control technology. Events like these are linked to the Curriculum for Excellence and it is hoped that this experience can be replicated for all second year Computing classes.. This event was well received by all pupils and the Sensation staff complimented the Grove pupils saying that “they were a pleasure to work with”!
The next Robolab workshop has been organised for January.
