Jan 25, 2018 - More Monty Python

ZACH - All my students should sign in and start on the entry ticket.  I want them to go to this site and "poke around".  You can go there too.  Help the students find the google group and have them search for robotic topics
 
Entrance Ticket - HomeBrew Robotics Club
  • Take a look at  this site and answer the following questions?
    1. When and where is their next meeting?
    2. Do you want to go?... Then go... I think I'm going to be there...
    3. If you want a good resource, where you can ask questions, join their email/forum group https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/hbrobotics
    4. Is there a response to the question about "Neato Motor Wiring" Or "Charging NEATO Batteries?"
    5. Are there any other posts you found interesting?  Poke around and see if some one has an answer for a question you have on your robot project
Class Agenda:

  • 12:30-12:45 - Entry Ticket - 15 min (see top of Blog for today)
ZACH, all my students should have access to this site... Maybe Jessica may not, but just have her register if she needs to.  Every one should do Lesson 3 (where Jessica may want to look at lesson 1 and 2.  All students should have headphones to quietly listen to the lessons, and then do the labs.  If you know anything about Python, you can help them) 
  • 12:45 - 1:25 - Python Level 3 (3.1 - 3.9 lessons) from Try Python 
    • Spend 30-40 min really learning these lessons on Conditional structures
    • If You have not done fir level 1 or 2, please start there. 
    • Do the work in the lessons, but ALSO open your Cygwin and try it out there too...
 ZACH, this is a site that all my students should have access to... (Possibly Jessica may not, but have her try to log in with the instructions below.  This again should be all students listening with headphones... If they have issues tell them to do an Instructables class)
  • 1:25 - 2:05 - Work on the first  to Job Ready Career Skills at www.jobreadycareerskills.com
  •    First time logging in? www.jobreadycareerskills.com
        Login using username flast.svcte and password Fc342487
        Rest your password — and remember it!
     
  • Do at least 2 more modules today.. We are starting a new module today. Personal Characteristics Lessons.  So do the first 2.  If you get done early, you can do 3 as well. Do the following:
    • Demonstrating a Good Attitude (R) and Gaining and Showing Respect (R)
 ZACH, all my students are in one of 4 teams, (except for Kenneth) and should work on updating their slides.  They should be able to talk and walk around... but keep them focused on their slides)
  • 2:05 - 2:20 - Flex Factor Slides
ZACH, this should be fun.... All my Students are working on a Robotics project.  I tried to make sure they had what they needed, but I will put some items on the cart by my desk, which they can use.  I'm going to have my Office and supply room closed, and you should not get anything out of there.  It may seem a bit chaotic, but they should all have a "do List"... Please walk around and have them explain what they are doing... and if you see students wasting time, get them back on track.  Ask them to think about any NEXT steps.  All robot teams should submit a blog entry of what they did.  They know how to do this.

for my class this is open lab time, with some teams working on specific projects.  As long as they are researching, working on hardware or watching an Instructables or other tech related online class they can be considered "working")

  • At 2:15, please get on the radio say the following on Channel 2 on the radio... "All Teachers, All Classes, it's 2:15 on Thursday, so that means it time for Robot Club.  Please send your students in good standing that are interested in Robotics to Room 709."
  • There may be 3-4 students from other classes show up.  Have them integrate into the "team" in my class.
  • 3:20 - 3:30 - Cleanup
