A Look Inside Weedsport’s New Robotics Courses

Kascey Relfe, Staff Photographer

At the start of this semester, Weedsport offered a pair of Robotics courses for the first time. Mr. Gates and Mrs. Bower are both teaching one section of the elective course. In the course students have assembled a Lego Mindstorm robotic kit and are currently using the robots they constructed to do simple tasks like following a line that moves in multiple directions. As the course progresses, students will make their robots accomplish more sophisticated tasks. Johnny Green photographer Kascey Relfe took these pictures to give students a brief look at what is happening in the class, and later this semester, we will do a follow up article as the robots become more sophisticated.
