LABVIEW 2013 FRC PROFESSIONAL
Volunteer professional mentors lend their time and talents to guide each team. It’s as close to real-world engineering as a student can get. High-school student participants call it “the hardest fun you’ll ever have.” Under strict rules, limited resources, and an intense six-week time limit, teams of 20 or more students are challenged to raise funds, design a team "brand," hone teamwork skills, and build and program industrial-size robots to play a difficult field game against like-minded competitors. From FIRST’s website “We call FIRST Robotics Competition the ultimate Sport for the Mind. We also will support other FIRST events such as the DC Regional on March 28-30, 2013.Īnyone interested in getting involved in these service activities is welcome to email Betsy Mendelsohn, Director, STS Programs.Welcome to the sub-reddit for the international First Robotics Competition (FRC).
High School on February 16, 2013, in Washington DC ( photos from 2012). The STS Program will send student volunteers to a scrimmage during the final days of the build period hosted by Phelps A.C.E. Developed by Claire Robbins in 2009 and now taught by Matt Aruch, CPSP249T students have benefited from the dedication of these graduate students in the School of Education. Students in Scholars are encouraged to earn credit for service students registered in CPSP249T can support after school robotics clubs at Greenbelt E.S. The Science, Technology & Society ( STS) program of College Park Scholars hosted the event (first hosted in January 2012) in the Cambridge Community Center. The three NI instructors included Nishantha Fernando, academic field sales engineer for the mid-Atlantic region. National Instruments supported this event by staffing a programming workshop in LabVIEW, using several robot-scale teaching breadboards that provide hands on experience. Student volunteers from MASE (Mentors Advancing STEM Education) included Nitay Ravin (EE) and Dan Villalobos (Physics). At Saturday's event, mentors included computer scientists, IT professionals, the STEM program specialist from APL - Denise Lewis, engineers, an electrician, retirees from STEM careers, and dedicated home school parents. Please see photos from the January 2013 and photos from the January 2012 campus robotics events.Īdult and college student mentors support the teens as they build and program their robots. FIRST was begun by inventor Dean Kamen to attract and retain students to STEM education and careers more than 50,000 students on 2,500 teams will participate internationally in 2013. The FIRST season for 2013's FRC challenge, " Ultimate Ascent," started on January 5 and culminates on February 19, 2013. They are all associated with For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology ( FIRST) as members of FIRST Robotics Challenge ( FRC) teams. On Saturday, January 12, 2013, students from 8 high schools gathered on campus to build and learn to program their competition robots. Students participate in the FIRST robotics workshop on campus, January 12, 2013.
