In this STEM course designed for 9-12th graders, students will integrate algebraic thinking and programmatic knowledge and use programming skills to navigate the Tello Drone using the Droneblocks app.

This course uses Scratch based coding. Hardware required. Includes 15 lessons.

Optional: Add 8 Tello Drones

In this course, students explore and apply how Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (drones) are used and function. Through a series of activities that support inquiry and hands-on learning, students will develop an understanding of how drones function and the real-world purposes for which they are used.

• Skills Overview: Problem Solving, Critical Thinking, Analytical Thinking, Sequential Thought Process, Directional Concepts, Visual Tracking and 2-D to 3-D Correspondence
• How it Works: Flying has never been so fun and easy! Using the DroneBlocks application, the drone runs through commands that students program in the app.
• Key Benefits: Help students experience STEM through hands-on activities and experiments while challenging them to think critically, solve problems effectively, and acquire the skills needed to enter STEM-related fields.
• Technical Support: Comprehensive technical support is available throughout the entire year of the curriculum, ensuring that educators and students receive timely assistance with any technical issues related to the equipment kits.
