Minecraft Roller Coaster Design
Build your own roller coaster in Minecraft using minecarts, powered rails, and redstone! Will your coaster pass through underground caverns? Will it soar high into the air? Students employ engineering, sequential logic, and spacial reasoning to answer these and other questions. The only limit to you roller coaster is your imagination!
LEGO Engineering Expo
Expand your LEGO Robotics skills while exploring a cool science challenge. In LEGO Engineering Expo, students will work on three components as a team. 1) Research the chosen challenge subject, guided by our instructors. 2) Create motorized LEGO creations to show how to solve the challenge. 3) Create a poster showing their solution. All while […]
