The judge at the RDS Primary Science Fair made some lovely comments about the 6th Class project on robotics. Would you like to read his comments?
‘I knew nothing about robots or programming before coming to hear the students speak, but I certainly have learnt a lot now!
A very ambitious project to get the class using programming software.
I was incredibly impressed with the depth of knowledge and the understanding of how to manipulate the drag-block software and that a booklet summarising instructions for how to program the robot was produced as well.
We had an amazing discussion about the future use of robots such as this and the sort of more complex ability that would make it useful in future homes.
Perhaps if the project were to continue, or run again, it would be good to outline simple tasks that it would be useful for the robot to do. This could be done in theory, even if it is beyond the ability of the software at present.
But all in all, a brilliant project, brilliantly carried out! Well done!’
Thank you to the judge for his lovely comments!
We were thrilled to receive our trophy!
