Robotics Club for Talented Youth (RCTY)

Our mission is to bridge the STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics) learning gap and ignite passion for technology for talented youths. Hands-on learning is provided through progression of team-based robotics challenges. It helps young students discover passion for STEAM ( and develop the skills they will need to succeed in today’s competitive environment.

COURSE OVERVIEW

“Creativity breeds innovation, so we must breed creativity.”

INTRODUCTION TO ROBOTICS - [GRADES PRE-K TO 1st.]

Students program unique, simple robot made with Lego® bricks using drag-and-

drop blocks on iPads. We allow them to explore motion detectors, sound haptics, and all else

the robot world has to offer.

ROBOTICS 1 - [GRADES 2nd to 4th]

Students learn to how to construct

algorithms and basic programming

concepts such as conditional logic and

iteration.

They are allowed to construct their very

own robot from scratch - spinning tops,

flying birds, race cars, cranes, lunar

robots, and more are all on the table.

ROBOTICS 2

[GRADES 4th to 6th]

Students are given access to upper end

motors and sensors to experiment with,

such as touch, ultrasonic, color, and gyro

sensors.

They can build robots that can

autonomously lift and drop objects,

avoid obstacles, walk, and talk.
