For the novice: Though the idea of programming robots may sound
intimidating to some children, the LEGO MINDSTORMS system provides
an easy and fun experience. The workshops offer a friendly
teamwork-learning environment, and most children find it very
intuitive within a short period of time.
Advanced Challenge for expert.
For the more
advanced: We provide more complex, mind-challenging robotics
activities which may require complex programming logic even for college level. Our programs include advanced level, which guarantees a bundle of
technical challenges and fun for the more advanced kids. The
challenges are virtually
endless.
