Discussion Prompts

Observing

  • How did you calculate the number of wheel turns needed to make a point turn? What strategies did your group use to solve the challenge? 
  • How did you use your solution in your VEXcode GO project? What would happen if the solution was correct? What if it was incorrect?
  • Did your Code Base complete the parade route successfully the first time? What did you change in your project to make improvements? 

Predicting

  • What if the parade route was a square? What steps would you take to code your robot to complete the new parade route?
    • How would this compare to your project where the Code Base drove 48 inches, turned around, and drove the 48 inches back to the start?
  • How would the number of turns change if you needed your Code Base to turn 45 degrees instead?

Collaborating

  • What was one challenge your group faced while doing the calculations and testing your VEXcode GO project? How did you solve the problem together?
  • How has your group's project changed from the start of the Lab until now? How did you work together to make your project more successful in the challenge? 
  • What changes did your group make that made your project work less successfully? How did you work together to fix it?
