Adelaide Robotics Academy - Term 1/2020

Award-winning Robotics, Drones, Coding and Engineering after school classes for ages 10-18 in the heart of the city About this Event At Adelaide Robotics Academy students discover the secrets of Science, Technology (Coding), Engineering, Maths, Physics and Chemistry in a practical way by using robots and drones. Our Curriculum is aligned with ACARA, and it was designed by Carnegie Mellon University to progressively teach young people Applied Science throughout several years. And the proof that it works best is that in 2019 we won more trophies in RoboCup than any other school in South Australia. We are part of Children's University Australia, which is managed by the University of Adelaide (more info here ). The Curriculum includes studying motion, sensors, decision programming and logic through challenges such as Robo Sumo, Robo Soccer, Search and Rescue, Robo Dance, Maze, and Space Challenge. We are the only Australian institution accredited to organise certification exams on behalf of Carnegie Mellon Robotics Academy for programming languages such as Labview (EV-G) and Arduino. Apart from building and programming LEGO Mindstorms EV3 robots, we learn Electronics by creating custom Arduino robots. In addition, we have special classes for DJI drone programming. Each year our 50-100 students attend several excursions to exciting Adelaide enterprises involved in high tech, automation, artificial intelligence and engineering. Adelaide Robotics Academy organises Robotics classes, App Development and Game Development courses throughout the school year as after-school activities at Thebarton Community Centre (Room 4) every day from Monday to Friday from 4 PM to 6 PM. The same class will run Monday to Friday from 4-5 pm and 5-6 pm, so the children only need to attend one session per week. All you have to do is choose a day and time (e.g. Tuesdays from 5 to 6) and visit Eventbrite website to lock in your spot. Each lesson is 60 minutes. There are 9-11 lessons per term.
