Computer Engineer Design Project

Year Groups: 1st Grade, 2nd Grade, Kindergarten

Subjects: Computer Science, STEAM, Coding

Standards: Debug (identify and fix) errors in an algorithm or program that includes sequences and simple loops. (K-2.AP.14.), Know and use a deliberate design process for generating ideas, testing theories, creating innovative artifacts or solving authentic problems. (ISTE-S.4.a.), Select and use digital tools to plan and manage a design process that considers design constraints and calculated risks. (ISTE-S.4.b.), Develop programs with sequences and simple loops, to express ideas or address a problem. (K-2.AP.10.), Model daily processes by creating and following algorithms (sets of step-by-step instructions) to complete tasks. (K-2.AP.08.)

Instructions for Pupils

You will be updating this activity throughout your computer engineering project. On each page, if you press the megaphone, you can hear the instructions read to you, or you can read the instructions on the page. Good luck and happy engineering!

Teacher Notes (not visible to pupils)

This activity is intended to be used as a way for students to show off their computer science skills within an engineering design challenge that uses coding. While the activity has specific robots listed, it can be edited to match you unique needs/materials.
