This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
My Project
Students of all ages enjoy the opportunity to be creative and build. With advancements in the 21st century, now student interests have shifted to electronics and gaming. We have a wonderful group of students who are passionate about integrating the love of creativity and building with electronics and gaming. These laptops will help my Lego League students create the code needed to perform complicated tasks within the Lego League table challenge!
FIRST Lego League has taught our team first hand how teamwork and resiliency can help them overcome the most difficult obstacles.
Our students of the FIRST Lego League team have taken 1st place for Core Values the last two seasons. We have also earned callbacks in each pillar of Lego League. The one thing that is holding our team back is the table game. Currently our laptops are outdated. This has lead to us struggling with network issues and software complications at competitions. Namely this year, we lost our entire code, code that our team spent months on creating. We had one hour to try to put the code be together. With new laptops we can help avoid these issues in the future.
