3. WHAT IS NXT ROBOTICS ?
Lego Mindstorms NXT is a programmable robotics kit released
by LEGO in late July 2006. It replaced the first-generation Lego
Mindstorms kit, which was called the Robotics Invention System. The
base kit ships in two versions: the Retail Version (set #8527) and the
Education Base Set (set #9797). It comes with the NXT-G programming
software, but a variety of unofficial languages exist, such as NXC, NBC,
leJOS NXJ, and RobotC. A new version of the set, the new LEGO
Mindstorm NXT 2.o, was released on August 1, 2009, featuring a color
sensor and other upgraded capabilities.

5. ROBOTICS PROGRAMS
 Pre School
 Elementary
 Middle School
 High School

6. PRE SCHOOL ROBOTICS PROGRAM
LEGO Education Early Learning products provide structured learning
opportunities to help the youngest students explore their world. Create
meaningful hands-on experiences with DUPLO® bricks, Play Themes, and
sets for early literacy and numeracy.

8. ELEMENTARY ROBOTICS PROGRAM
Designed for the elementary learner, WeDo Robotics is a cross-
curricular set and series of theme-based activities. With WeDo, your
class can build animals, soccer players and more, then add movement
with fun, drag and drop software. Complete lesson plans for science,
math, literacy and social studies make it easy to get started writing
stories, solving problems, and creating innovative projects.

10. MIDDLE SCHOOL ROBOTICS PROGRAM
LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT™ Education helps classroom teachers bring the
fun of robotics into middle school and high school classrooms. With LEGO
MINDSTORMS Education, you convert your classroom into a hands-on
robotics laboratory! Your students will model real-life mechanisms and use
creativity, logic, and problem-solving skills while learning key STEM concepts.

12. HIGH SCHOOL ROBOTICS PROGRAM
LEGO Smart students in high school are our future scientists, engineers,
teachers and citizens. LEGO Education solutions allow students to explore
their talents and to work hands-on to master STEM subjects through
practical experience so they can build experience to contribute to a future
better world.

23. ROBOT DESIGN
A robot is consist of several important components. To make it easer for
you to understand how each of these works you will begin by how. You
will first learn how to work with the NXT motors and the bricks as you
build wheeled vehicle that can drive around your room. You need
correctly assembled robot and to make it move.

27. PROGRAMMING
The one thing above all else that excites people about working with robotics is
that they move. There is just fascinating about watching your creation become
mobile. We can thank that NXT motors for making this movement possible
