Podcasts about first lego league

There are celebrations all around for Northlands Primary School as their team, Smooth Sailors, achieved top honours at the Open Africa Championship (OAC) of the First Lego League (FLL). The league was held from 7 to 9 May 2025 in Cape Town and teams from 42 countries were in attendance. Out of the 106 teams who were invited, globally, the Smooth Sailors from Northlands Primary School were the highest-ranked SA team. They earned second place in the “Core Values” category. Principal Mr Alistair Naidu shared praise for the team's amazing achievement, saying: “Smooth Sailors have not only made us proud as a school, but also as a country. Their recognition at an international level speaks volumes of their dedication, humility, and ability to lead with purpose. This is the kind of global excellence we are cultivating at Northlands.” Team lead and coach Mr. Steven Kent shared that the First Lego League was more than just coding. “It's a gateway to lifelong learning. We're building a generation that is curious, empathetic, and eager to solve real-world challenges. Smooth Sailors have shown that South African youth can compete with the world's best and excel,” said the proud coach.

In Linux Out Loud 108, the crew goes live to support FTC Team 5026 Tesla Coils and FLL Team 53036 The Building Beasts as they gear up for competition!

En la First Lego League hay dos categorías 6-11 años que es explore y la segunda 12-16, que se denomina Challenge. Tienen unos retos siguiendo la temática que este año es Inmersión, Fondos marinos, retos de la sociedad de la tecnología a determinadas profundidades. La competición se divide en fases nacionales y también regionales, en España el partner nacional es Ingeniera Soy y a nivel regional lo lleva la Fundación Integra y la UPCT con el objetivo de promover la vocación de la ingeniería industrial. El modo explore no es competitivo, sino exposición "los familiares y compañeros de estos chicos pasan por los stands de exposición y los peques cuentan qué han hecho y por qué, en este caso, pueden hablar de algún problema a resolver en diferentes profundidades (desde como resolver la contaminación, cultivar algas, recuperara coral, investigar las simas.. ) Hay revisores que visitan los stands, y valoran los aspectos más positivos. Al final, todos reciben un reconocimiento que refuerza lo que han hecho mejor. Challenge es otra cosa es Challange en la que está la prueba del robot, una mesa para resolver el mayor número de misiones posibles y unas reglas que no permiten tocar el robot fuera de unas bases ubicadas en dos esquinas. Tres intentos y se cuenta el intento de más puntuación. El proyecto científico es parecido a la categoría Explorer. Se defiende ante un tribunal con jurado y durante media hora exponen la problemática, como lo han resuelto y se apoyan en algún robot para explicarlo. Diseño del robot, en la media hora de exposición del proyecto también se justifica la configuración, topología y detalles del robot, algunas misiones son singulares y los accesorios de cómo acercarse, coger y dejar algo. Y finalmente Valores, que pesan tanto como cualquier otro aspecto técnico, aquí se tiene en cuenta la deportividad, el trabajo en equipo, el respeto por la competición y el resto de rivales.

West Australian high school payloads to space! Find out about the BinarX Outreach Program which connects West Australian high school students with the Binar Space Program at Curtin University. We catch up with Outreach Program Coordinator Meg Berry and Ahla & Shivani from Bob Hawke College to learn more about the Binar 2-3-4 in early August! Hosted by Ben Newsome from Fizzics Education About the BinarX Outreach Program The BinarX program sees West Australian students design and prototype science payloads for the Binar cubesat, and then build those projects for launch on-orbit with the Binar Space Program at Curtin University. Payload concepts are directed by students and teachers & may include sensors to study earth and space environment, samples for testing in microgravity, or samples for testing in a vacuum. They may also include a software-only payload running on Binar's flight computer. Students will access their results using amateur band radio, either at Curtin or through other ground stations participating in the open source SatNOGS network. As part of the program, students and teachers will also construct and operate their own SatNOGS ground station to gain a better understanding of radio communications and contribute back to the SatNOGS community. As the program progresses, BinarX will guide teachers and students through obtaining radio licenses and installing amateur radio equipment in their schools. This will allow them to communicate with their satellite payload directly, and connect with the rest of the global amateur satellite community.The program is currently at capacity for the 2024-2026 Student Payload Development Program, but please register your interest for future opportunities with the program! Launch details for Binar 2-3-4! If you're in Perth, WA, please register to join us at our in-person launch event this weekend!

Women have made tremendous strides in engineering over the last few decades. Rising both in numbers and in leadership roles, girls now have more women to look up to in STEM fields than ever before. Representation is crucial. When young girls dream about their future, remember this phrase:If they can see it, they can be it.No one knows this better than Heidi Balestrieri. In college, she was the lone girl in a class of 50 mechanical engineering graduates. When she entered the workforce, the gender gap was even more apparent.But Heidi pursued her passions and rose to become Director of Engineering at Sentry Equipment. For her work in manufacturing and STEM outreach, she was the recipient of a Manufacturing Institute Women MAKE award.Heidi joins us for a discussion around women in engineering: how far we've come, how far we need to go, and what individuals, schools and businesses can do to create a world where every girl feels empowered to pursue a career in STEM.3 Big Takeaways from this episode:Engineers are problem solvers: It's not just math and science. Engineering is all about solving problems, and that involves a much wider skillset. Schools can incorporate problem solving into STEM-related activities that teach even young kids how to think like an engineer. But remember, failure is part of the process. Heidi notes that many young girls seek perfection and are afraid to fail, so we must encourage trial and error as part of the problem-solving process.Give interns a real engineering project, and get a long-term employee: Often, engineering interns are assigned clerical work that doesn't challenge them or give them a sense for what a true engineering career can be like. Heidi and Sentry Equipment have given engineering students real engineering projects, real autonomy, and real responsibility, and in turn have seen those interns come back for full-time employment after graduation.Representation + community are needed for women in engineering: Representation starts young: engineering badge days in Girl Scouts and coaching First Lego League teams are two great examples Heidi shares. It continues into later school years, where companies need to have diverse representation at STEM outreach days and career fairs. Finally, women need community in STEM fields, whether at an inclusive company or through organizations like the Society of Women Engineers. Individuals also need their personal board of directors, that group of mentors that can pour into an emerging engineer and help her on her career path.ResourcesLearn more about organizations featured in this episode:Sentry EquipmentManufacturing Institute Women MAKEGirl Scouts STEM badgesFIRST Lego LeagueConnect with Heidi on LinkedIn.View episode page: https://techedpodcast.com/balestrieri/Instagram - Facebook - YouTube - TikTok - Twitter - LinkedIn

Today, we meet with Mark Wallace. Mark wrote his first computer program in 1965, and has written a lot of them since, using languages ranging from Assembler to SQL. His interest in zero defect software led him to study software engineering methods such as Structured Design and Object-Oriented Design, and ways to adopt them using Computer-Aided Software Engineering (CASE) tools. In recent years, he has taught robotics to middle and high school students, and served as a judge in the World Robot Olympics and First Lego League competitions. He is now retired in Boynton Beach, but volunteers to teach computer programming to high school students through a Microsoft-sponsored charity. We met Mark recently while we were all judging student robot presentations and we were quite impressed. We know you will be too and we hope you stay tuned after for the takeaway.

Monica Keogh is just one of a group of Irish Girls Guides from Howth who are representing Ireland in Rio de Janeiro. FIRST LEGO League is a global robotics programme that introduces STEM to children ages 4-16.

En nuestro programa del fin de semana, hablamos con la gente de Club de Robótica, ganador nacional del concurso First Lego League, La famosa marca que se encargará de fabricar juguetes para Space X; Nuestra directora Andrea Cardona probó el nuevo servicio de la plataforma Beat, el nuevo servicio de carros eléctricos ‘Beat Zero' , buena música y mucho más!!

FIRST Robotics might be the most influential STEM activity that high school and younger students can participate in. Heck, most of those involved with FIRST Robotics are probably better engineers than we are, without having gone to college!
