Robot Research

There are four major steps in this Robot Presentation.

  1. Choose a Robot to Research. Here are a couple of links that might help you choose. Robots of the Decade Google 5 Best Robots List of Robots There are more out there. Try to find a robot that you can find a lot of information on. You have a choice, so find one that interests you.
  2. Research the Robot. There is a list of 10 things to have in your presentation available to you. Try to find out as much as you can about the robot. Become an expert on it, and keep track of the information as you find it. Here are a couple of resources from PLTW, but you will want to use your best search skills to locate the information.
  3. Make a Presentation. I'd like you to use an app on your iPad in which the presentation can be made. Keynote, Prezi, etc. should be good options. Here is an example from something I made on the Cheetah-Bot.
  4. Share your Presentation. Next Tuesday we will do a "Gallery Walk" in which the different groups have a chance to present and teach others about the researched robot.
The grading rubric for this project can be found here.
