Introduction
Creative
Classroom
Solutions
Children deepen their understanding of how forces affect motion and explore
concepts of energy. They build more complex mechanisms and use them to
make accurate observations, measurements and records; and to design their
own solutions.
See the primary and secondary school range pages 12-17.
Robotics
LEGO Education WeDo
From 7 years
The exciting LEGO Education WeDo concept provides a fun and easy way to
get started on simple robotics. Children build models, attach simple sensors
and motors, which are plugged into their computers, and configure behaviour
using intuitive, icon-based software.
See the primary school range pages 20-23.
Robotics
LEGO MINDSTORMS Education
From 8 years
Students build robots and use software to plan, test and modify sequences
of instructions for a variety of real-life robotic behaviours. They gather and
analyse data from sensors using datalogging functionalities such as graph
viewer. Robotics is an exciting way to bring science, technology, engineering
and mathematics to life in the classroom.
See the primary and secondary school range pages of LEGO MINDSTORMS
Education brick sets, software and activity packs pages 24-31.

Activities with
Natural Flow
Activity Packs from LEGO Education are developed by experienced
educators and have a natural flow that engages and motivates
students. We call it the 4C approach. It consists of four phases:
Connect, Construct, Contemplate, and Continue.
Connect
Construct
Students work in teams to solve an open-ended building task
related to the challenge. They make their own solutions and plan,
build and test their models or software program.
Contemplate
In this phase, students think about what they have just constructed
and achieved. They discuss the project at hand, reflect on and
adapt their ideas, and teachers can encourage this process by
asking questions.
Continue
Extension ideas are provided that present a new challenge within
the same theme. Students are encouraged to change or add
features to their models, thereby leading them to a new Connect
phase. This allows them to enter a positive learning spiral, in which
they take on increasingly difficult challenges.

Science and Data Logging
Activity Pack
This
activity
pack
gives you four real-life
science activities and
one research project
providing up to 25
hours of instruction.
The activities are
divided into four
themes:
Motion,
Light and Color,
Heat and Sound.
The
research
project
centers
around data gathering
and
analysis
for
sensor-based
inspection of aging bridges. Developed by
Carnegie Mellon Universitys Robotics Academy,
it includes video clips, worksheets and teacher
introduction materials. NXT Temperature Sensor
(9749) and NXT Software (2000080) are required.
Measuring distance, time and speed
using linear formulas
Experimenting with light reflection and
absorption
Investigating properties of sound with focus
on amplitude and frequency
Experimenting with transfer of thermal energy
by testing the effect of conduction, convection
and radiation

This CD ROM activity pack is ideal as a step-by-step introduction to robotics in the classroom or as preparation
for robotics competitions. The seven easy-to-follow training activities, each supported by student
worksheets, guide the students from simple to more advanced programming. They
are then challenged to apply their programming and problem-solving skills by
making their robots solve real-world engineering challenges related to renewable
energy. Comprehensive teacher notes provide everything needed for easy
implementation, including programming examples, building instructions, mission
and rules, ways to differentiate, extension ideas, and more. Also includes a project
that can be used for further research into the challenge topic of renewable
energy. Provides 45 hours of tuition. Requires 9797, 9594 and 2000080.
Engaging in hands-on STEM education
Working with prototyping and design
Acquiring problem-solving and team working skills
Gaining hands-on experience with programming, sensors, motors and intelligent units
