Course Level: College Preparatory

Credits: 5

Suggested Grade Level: 11 – 12

Prerequisite: Successful completion of Developing Robotic Systems (Robotics III)

NJ Course Code:

"The purpose of this course is to provide students with more advanced content knowledge and technically-oriented experiences in the study of the principles and applications of robotic systems. The content and activities will also consider emerging technology such as artificial intelligence, commercial applications, and societal impacts. The course seeks to give students the opportunity to develop technical skills and knowledge and to apply their skills and knowledge in increasingly open-ended design projects that consider robots and drones as part of a robotic system. Students in Robotics 4 will build on their previous experiences to develop projects selected in coordination with the teacher. Students will gain experience working with and understanding the dynamics of long-term projects.

Students interested in extending their class experience are encouraged to participate in one of the Mount Olive robotics teams that compete in the First Robotics Competition or Marine Advanced Technology Education robotics competition (BETA, MORT, or Loggerhead ROV)."
