  • Botball Kit for Teaching Engineering Computing
    Botball Kit for Teaching Engineering Computing David P. Miller Charles Winton School of AME Department of CIS University of Oklahoma University of N. Florida Norman, OK 73019 Jacksonville, FL 32224 Abstract Many engineering classes can benefit from hands on use of robots. The KISS Institute Botball kit has found use in many classes at a number of universities. This paper outlines how the kit is used in a few of these different classes at a couple of different universities. This paper also introduces the Collegiate Botball Challenge, and how it can be used as a class project. 1 Introduction Introductory engineering courses are used to teach general principles while introducing the students to all of the engineering disciplines. Robotics, as a multi-disciplinary application can be an ideal subject for projects that stress the different engineering fields. A major consideration in establishing a robotics course emphasizing mobile robots is the type of hands-on laboratory experience that will be incorporated into the course of instruction. Most electrical engineering schools lack the machine shops and expertise needed to create the mechanical aspects of a robot system. Most mechanical engineering schools lack the electronics labs and expertise needed for the actuation, sensing and computational aspects required to support robotics work. The situation is even more dire for most computer science schools. Computer science departments typically do not have the support culture for the kind of laboratories that are more typically associated with engineering programs. On the other hand, it is recognized that computer science students need courses which provide closer to real world experiences via representative hands-on exercises.

    Georgia Space Grant Consortium Georgia Institute of Technology Dr. Stephen M. Ruffin, Director Telephone Number: 404 894-8200 Consortium URL: www.gasgc.org Grant Number: NNX10AR61H PROGRAM DESCRIPTION: The National Space Grant College and Fellowship Program consists of 52 state-based, university-led Space Grant Consortia in each of the 50 states plus the District of Columbia and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico. Annually, each consortium receives funds to develop and implement student fellowships and scholarships programs; interdisciplinary space-related research infrastructure, education, and public service programs; and cooperative initiatives with industry, research laboratories, and state, local, and other governments. Space Grant operates at the intersection of NASA’s interest as implemented by alignment with the Mission Directorates and the state’s interests. Although it is primarily a higher education program, Space Grant programs encompass the entire length of the education GSGC MEMBER: peline, including elementary/secondary and informal education. The Georgia Space Grant Consortium is a Designated/Program Grant Consortium funded at a level of $845,000 for fiscal year 2010. PROGRAM GOALS Diversity The proposed programs were designed to reflect the geographic, gender and ethnic demographics of Georgia. The target goals for all programs will represent the demographics of the State of Georgia, as well as the enrollment of students in colleges and universities according to the National Center for Educational Statistics (Underrepresented Groups – 39.6%, Women – 57%). Outcome 1 Base Grant The programs being conducted by the GSGC consist of providing research opportunities that enhance students’ research capabilities and prepare them for STEM employment. Programs are directed at the undergraduate and graduate level with a strong focus on underrepresented groups in their freshman and sophomore years.

    Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology ACADEMIC BOOSTERS TEAM CELEBRATION 2020-2021 Released in June 2021 Thomas Jefferson High School Academic Boosters, Inc. TJ Academic Boosters actively supports our outstanding academic teams in their various pursuits. Some twenty academic teams compete in local, state, national, and even international events. As financial resources are not available from Fairfax County Public Schools, Academic Boosters asks families to join the organization by contributing tax-deductible donations at various levels. Academic Boosters defrays teacher travel expenses and student registration fees to the extent possible. Even with this support, academic team members pay for their own travel, room, meals, and other related expenses. TJ Academic Boosters supported the following academic teams in the 2020-2021 school year: Botball, Certamen, Chess Team, Forensics and Congressional Debate Teams, Japan Bowl, Varsity Math Team, Model United Nations, Physics Team, Policy Debate Team, Public Forum and Lincoln-Douglas Debate Teams, Quiz Bowl, Rubik’s Cube Club, Science Olympiad and Academic Decathlon. Information about most of the teams is provided on the Academic Boosters website: http://aboosters.sites.tjhsst.edu. For information on TJ’s 8th period academic teams please visit this presentation. Academic Boosters gathers information about team accomplishments for the PTSA newsletter, recognizes family memberships, promotes academic teams at orientations and open houses, and organizes a year-end celebration of our teams’ accomplishments. Our TJ academic teams’ achievements have always been a source of pride for the entire TJHSST community and are a cornerstone of our national reputation for academic excellence. This year in particular, we had reason to be proud.

  • Botball: Autonomous Students Engineering Autonomous Robots
    Botball: Autonomous students engineering autonomous robots Cathryne Stein KISS Institute for Practical Robotics [email protected] (405) 579-4609 www.botball.org Abstract Sparking and maintaining an early fascination with engineering and computer programming is of great interest to educators who wish to bring high quality students into these fields, and it is of vital concern to all of us who want to see our country thrive in this world economy. This paper will present an effective, intensive, and enjoyable way of getting middle and high school age students actively engaged in engineering, science, math, and computer programming. The paper describes Botball, an engineering outreach program in which students design, build, and program small autonomous mobile robots. Examples of how Botball may help to draw a diverse population into engineering and computer programming will be discussed. Introduction Recently, over 180 teams of students came together in regional tournaments across the country to match their two autonomous, but cooperative, robots against other teams’ robotic duos in a game of programming, design, strategy, and engineering skill. Most of these regional tournaments took place on college campuses. But the participants were middle and high school students who had designed, programmed and built these robots as part of an engineering outreach program called Botball. These middle and high school students came from a startling diversity of socio-economic backgrounds; they came from inner city and rural schools, private schools, science and technology magnet schools, alternative or continuation schools, as well as your average everyday suburban public school. Some even came from home school situations, community computer clubhouses, or other types of organizations.
