Roamer Robot Junior, Grades 4-8

Description

Roamer is an educational robot that blends the traditional value of learning facts with a focus on learning through understanding. It combines modern robotics technology with the science of learning. It helps students create kinesthetic, visual and spatial mental models of difficult ideas.

Roamer creates an active learning environment which helps students to acquire and engage factual knowledge in practical and authentic situations.

They achieve this in a way which develops cognitive, emotional, social and personal sustainable learning skills:

• Creativity
• Critical and Metacognitive Thinking
• Problem Solving
• Analytical Reasoning
• Organizational and planning skills
• Communication Skills
• Cooperation and Teamwork Ability

Ages: 9+

Junior Roamer is the most advanced of the standard Roamers and as you would expect develops the control possibilities enormously. To fully use the programmable inputs and outputs you would need to add a control pod. Without the control pod you have access to the onboard single input and output as well as greater flexibility with the parameters and procedures.
