Here is an overview of our robotics program: 

In Level 1 , students will learn the basics of robotics using EV3 or SPIKE Robotics Kit by the doing lessons / activities. These activities are designed to teach them how to move and control the robot. They will first start with setting up the brick( basic robot)  and then learn about movements by programming how to control the motors and then and move on to learn how to program various sensors (touch sensor, color sensor, infra-red, gyro etc.) to perform certain activity. The activities will get harder as you move through them. The activities will teach them how to operate the software, brick, motors, and sensors. 

After they have done all the activities, they will be ready to do projects where they will use motors and various sensors to meet the challenge. 

Robotics classes are on going from one session to other moving up the difficulty level.

In next level ( after the basics are strong)  focus is more on projects which will prepare them for completions ( Like First Robotics). The instructor will mentor them on competition participation. team building  and tips. TSK doesn't take the students to competition but can mentor a pre formed team ( POD) who wants to compete. 

The basics learned will be foundation to any robotics kit as they move in higher grade.
