Curriculum

We have been working with two National Science Foundation projects (NWDCSD and Ensemble) to make our STEM Robotics curriculum available as a turn-key solution for novice STEM teachers and at the same time build a customization and collaboration tool for experienced STEM teachers.

This curriculum is based on NXT-G and uses the Video Trainers 2.0 series from Carnegie Mellon University (now available free on line). There are also links to a more condensed tutorial series by Dale Yocum.

The Portland State University Ensemble team is developing the STEM Robotics site, and our Introductory STEM Robotics 101 course is available here:

Most of the content is available for public view, but if you want to see assessments/answer-keys and be able to contribute to the site (which we strongly encourage educators to do), please register for a teacher account.

For an overview of the course content and an explanation of the site conventions, see this page:
