My team is looking forward to doing a sumo contest in two weeks.  You 
teach/learn about the light sensor and then you let the kids design a robot that 
can knock another robot out of a ring.  The guide I'm using, "Educate NXT", has 
them learning why the robot is acting the way it does (i.e staying inside the 
black circle.).  The teacher can allow the students to program the robot, or 
make a standard program and allow everyone to use that one.  You can also 
revisit this idea at another time by adding, touch sensors and ultrasonic 
sensors to the mix and then letting them battle it out again. Tthe idea of robot 
battles is VERY attractive to the kids, so if it were me, I would find some time 
to fit it in the camp.
Regards, 
Brandy

Subject: [VADCFLL-L] Robotics camp using FLL

Camp Occohannock on the bay is getting together a robotics camp for one week 
this summer.  I have been asked to help out, we may be pulling in the FRC team 
1893. 

So are there any ideas or course structure around a one week robotics camp?  

We have two NXT kits and parts, two or three PC's  and one table and field set 
up.  What else would you recommend for a week camp?

This is the most beautiful place on earth.
