This program has been designed by a team of Engineers at Sysnet Consulting with the objective to provide a clear set of instructions in the implementation of Rocketry and Robotics related technologies for youth.
Since robotics had become a very fashionable area of expertise there are many individuals, companies and organizations that have jump into this idea without the level of understanding and expertise required to keep young participants engaged.
Our model as many of the programs here uses the HECKT Methoddeveloped as a way to replicate knowledge consistently.
In order to developed a comprehensive program the following elements need to be incorporated.
- Efficient knowledge in Mathematics.
- Basic Principles of Physics and Science
- Spatial comprehension
- Critical Thinking
- Patience and practice
The core elements of the program include:
Basic concepts of Physics.
Building with Lego or any other building modules
Basic concepts in math for young children - Times tables, fractions (Refer to Math Thinker program)
