None of the levels requires or uses computers. There are Facilitator Guides for three levels. Youth use a Robotics Notebook to record their learning experiences, robotic designs and data from their investigations. One facilitator guide is needed per group, while each youth should have their own notebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Level 1 \u2013 Give Robots a Hand, youth explore and learn about robot arms. Concepts covered include pneumatics, arm designs, and three-dimensional space. Big ideas include form and function, scientific habits of mind, and engineering design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop4-h.org\/products\/copy-of-junk-drawer-robotics-level-2-robots-on-the-move?_pos=5&amp;_sid=47d2aeca3&amp;_ss=r\">Junk Drawer Robotics Level 2: Robots on the Move<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Level 2 \u2013 Robots on the Move, youth learn about locomotion through exploring, designing, and building mobile robot ROVs and other subsystems. Youth learn about friction, electronic circuits, mobile robots, simple machines, and buoyancy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop4-h.org\/products\/copy-of-junk-drawer-robotics-level-3-mechatronics?_pos=3&amp;_sid=47d2aeca3&amp;_ss=r\">Junk Drawer Robotics Level 3: Mechatronics<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Level 3 \u2013 Mechatronics, youth will explore sensors and analog and digital systems. The track introduces simple electronic components; youth will build basic circuits to see how the components work. They will investigate basic elements of programming and instructions for robotic computer control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop4-h.org\/products\/copy-of-junk-drawer-robotics-youth-robotics-notebook?_pos=2&amp;_sid=47d2aeca3&amp;_ss=r\">Junk Drawer Robotics: Youth Robotics Notebook<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is one Robotics Notebook for the three levels of the Junk Drawer Robotics curriculum. The notebook encourages youth to think and act like scientists and engineers. In their notebook, youth will record their ideas, collect data, draw designs, and reflect on their experiences. It also provides specific information for the challenges. Each youth should have his or her own Robotics Notebook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/extension.purdue.edu\/4-H\/_documents\/robotics\/facilitatingjunkdrawerrobotics.pdf\">Junk Drawer Robotics Facilitator&#8217;s Guide (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/extension.purdue.edu\/4-H\/_documents\/robotics\/junkdrawerroboticsactivitysupplies.pdf\">Junk Drawer Robotics Facilitator&#8217;s Guide Activity Supplies (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/extension.purdue.edu\/4-H\/_documents\/robotics\/junkdrawerroboticstoolbox.pdf\">Junk Drawer Robotics Facilitator&#8217;s Guide &#8220;What&#8217;s in Your Toolbox?&#8221; (PDF)<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop4-h.org\/collections\/robotics-curriculum\/products\/robotics-essentials\">Robotics Essentials<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all robots are the same, but they do share some basic features.

We&#8217;ve added new projects which will spark the imagination of builders, makers, and tinkerers of all ages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the last decade, Do-it-yourselfers have shown the world that you do not need to be an engineer or computer scientist to create useful, innovative devices, gadgets, and gizmos through what is known as the Maker Movement. In fact, with very little background, and a can-do attitude, almost anyone can enter the Maker world and create anything their imagination guides them to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This year, Illinois 4-H has brought the Maker Movement to your doorstep through a Multi Media curriculum experience called DIY Make &amp; Build!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DIY Make and Build is an opportunity for youth to learn about design, engineering, manufacturing, electricity and computer programming while being innovative and imaginative. While each activity has a specific goal in mind, this guide is to be used as a starting block to expand on each of the concepts and ideas presented here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This activity guide is designed to guide you in creating a sustained learning experience for youth using readily available materials purchased both online and locally, as well as common items found around the house. These activities are accompanied by video guides that can be used by youth independently (or at home) as well as in group settings. In addition, youth are encouraged to perform \u201cOnline Reconnaissance Missions\u201d to research topics not explicitly covered in this guide. These will be marked as \u201cORM\u201d. Each day can be done independently but could also be done in succession for a sustained learning experience. There are suggested activities in each of the topic related days. There are several online resources with similar activities that can be added to extend the time or others can be used in place of the ones listed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Washington 4-H Records, Forms, and Guides<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For youth members<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Coming soon!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">For adult helpers and club leaders<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Coming soon!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/4h\/projects\/stem\/robotics\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button  wsu-button--style-action\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tState 4-H Robotics Project Resources\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/4h\/projects\/stem\/stem\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button  wsu-button--style-action\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tState 4-H STEM Project Resources\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-column\"  style=\"\">\r\n\t\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"792\" height=\"198\" src=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2024\/01\/Robotics-792x198.png\" alt=\"A line art drawing of a robot in green at left next to the title &quot;Robotics&quot;; at right, industrial robots overseen by a person with a tablet\" class=\"wp-image-15263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2024\/01\/Robotics-792x198.png 792w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2024\/01\/Robotics-396x99.png 396w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2024\/01\/Robotics-768x192.png 768w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2024\/01\/Robotics-1536x384.png 1536w, https:\/\/wpcdn.web.wsu.edu\/extension\/uploads\/sites\/40\/2024\/01\/Robotics.png 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 792px) 100vw, 792px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Helpful Resources<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Activity Ideas<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/4-h.org\/clover\/activities\/can-can-robot\/\">Can-Can Robot<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Robots are the future\u2014and the present!

With the Junk Drawer Robotics Activity Bundle, youth explore and learn about robot arms. None of the levels requires or uses computers. There are Facilitator Guides for three levels. Concepts covered include pneumatics, arm designs, and three-dimensional space. Big ideas include form and function, scientific habits of mind, and engineering design. Youth use a Robotics Notebook to record their learning experiences, robotic designs and data from their investigations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop4-h.org\/collections\/robotics-engineering-educational-kits\/products\/ecobot-challenge\">Eco-Bot Challenge Kit<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Eco-Bot Challenge, youth build and test an autonomous robot, called an Eco-Bot, to clean up a simulated environmental spill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop4-h.org\/collections\/robotics-engineering-educational-kits\/products\/4-h-super-wiggle-bot\">4-H Super Wiggle Bot<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wiggle-Bots are motorized contraptions that are designed and built entirely by kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wiggle-Bots are more than a fun activity &#8211; they truly inspire.

Appreciate the challenge of going beyond step by step instructions and creating something completely new and innovative. It&#8217;s an incredible experience. How will you wiggle? Your Wiggle-Bot can be designed to do many cool things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/shop4-h.org\/products\/advanced-hydraulic-arm?_pos=3&amp;_sid=57febb128&amp;_ss=r\">Advanced Hydraulic Arm Activity<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Build yourself a third arm! This is a pretty incredible hydraulic powered remote-controlled arm. Use it to pick up your room, eat snacks, stack blocks, play a game, or battle against other hydraulic arms -some of these tasks may be easier than others to complete!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The arm is built totally by you, from scratch! You construct it by measuring, cutting, reaming holes and tapping. This arm is &#8220;advanced,&#8221; because it has 8 cylinders (4 cylinders move the arm, 4 cylinders form the control panel), and it has parts to make it into almost anything you can imagine. Build it using the instructions, then re-engineer it! Create your own unique design, incorporating recycled materials or anything else you can find. It comes with plenty of extra components included to help you change and create something completely new. Try re-engineering the arm so it can pivot at the base!<\/p>\n\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/yakima\/4-h\/projects-programs\/engineering-technology\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button  wsu-button--style-action\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tBack to Engineering and Technology Project Areas\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wsu-cta \" >\n\t<a \t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/extension.wsu.edu\/yakima\/4-h\/projects-programs\/\"\t\n\t\tclass=\"wsu-button  wsu-button--style-action\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\tBack to Projects and Programs\t\t\t<\/a>\n<\/div>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n        <div id=\"cahnrs-back-to-top\" class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top\" hidden aria-hidden=\"true\">\n            <a id=\"cahnrs-back-to-top-btn\" class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top__btn\" href=\"#product-top\" aria-label=\"Back to top\">\n                <span class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top__icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\u2191<\/span>\n                <span class=\"cahnrs-back-to-top__label\">Back to top<\/span>\n            <\/a>\n        <\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Youth who are interested in science and technology would be a perfect fit for a robotics project!
