Learnit Maths
Maths/It workshop.
Today I participated in a learnit maths workshop aimed at getting the year to become more creative and enthusiastic about maths and IT. In the first half of the class teams of three built a robot vehicle and got to grips with its workings. In the second half of the class we all programmed our robots using individual computers, using simple commands such as forward and backwards. We then attempted to complete a course using maths to figure out how many times we needed the wheels to turn. Maths was also used to figure out the degrees of the turns.
I personally really enjoyed this workshop because it has greatly improved my communication skills and my understanding of some maths skills.
