  3. DIFFERENCES • TISP OFFERS MANY PROJECTS EACH OF ABOUT 2 PERIODS DURATION • THE ROBOT CHALLENGE IS OF 2 TO 4 MONTHS DURATION, AND MORE CLOSELY SIMULATES A TYPICAL ENGINEERING PROJECT

  4. SYMBIOTIC • TISP STARTS AT ELEMENTARY SCHOOL AND GOES ON THROUGH MIDDLE SCHOOL AND HIGH SCHOOL. STUDENTS BEGIN TO DEVELOP AN INTEREST • THE ROBOT CHALLENGE IS DONE AT HIGH SCHOOL AND PREPARES STUDENTS TO MAKE A DECISION: WHETHER TO BECOME AN ENGINEER

  5. WHAT IS THE ROBOT CHALLENGE? • A HANDS-ON PROJECT WHERE A TEAM OF STUDENTS CREATE A WALKING ROBOT FROM PIECES OF WOOD, PAPER CLIPS AND BRASS FASTENERS, CHEAP MOTORS AND THREADED RODS, AND COMPETE WITH TEAMS FROM OTHER SCHOOLS, IN THEIR ABILITY TO: • COMPLETE A COURSE OVER OBSTACLES • WRITE A 30 PAGE TECHNICAL ESSAY DESCRIBING THEIR EXPERIENCE • MAKE ON ORAL PRESENTATION BEFORE A PANEL OF JUDGES

  6. THE CHALLENGE • STUDENTS AND TEACHERS SELECT THEIR OWN LEVEL OF CHALLENGE: • A 2-LEG ROBOT • A 4-LEG ROBOT • A 2-LEG ROBOT WITH AUTOMATION • A 4-LEG ROBOT WITH AUTOMATION

  7. 2-LEG ROBOT

  8. 2-leg RobotNotice 2 motors (legs) and 2 skids

  9. 4-leg robotNotice 4 Controllers, a longer body and 2 legs that will be inserted each side
