What I enjoy most is Robotics class because it is all about doing, not just listening.
My teacher has attempted to build a moving model with us using motors, circuits, and code. On our first try, we failed to get our wheels to move because we had a problem with our connection. In previous situations, I would have felt let down, but I have learned not to let my feelings get in the way of my potential in the innovation process.
Together we identified the problem with the wiring, made the necessary changes to the code, and made our next attempt.
When our model made its first movement, we all celebrated because we were not just happy. We were happy because we had all put in the effort and the patience required.
Robotics classes have brought about a change in my way of thinking.
- I don’t give up easily
- I enjoy working with friends
- I enjoy taking on new challenges
What I now I realize is that my knowledge has to been put to practical use in order to increase it.
