The Robots are Coming? The Robots are Here!!!
A Look at Good Counsel’s Robotics Club
Are you interested in robots? Want to join a robotics competition? Or improve teamwork and building skills? Our school’s Robotics Club has all of those great opportunities and more!
Robotics Club, held in room 219 every Tuesday after school until 4:00 pm, is a gathering of students who are interested in learning about and working with robots. Students, under the watchful eye of moderator Dr. Turcan, learn how to create and assemble robots, along with being allowed to enter the Vex Robotics Competition.
To create a competition-ready robot, creativity and problem-solving skills are essential. Even a robot that is made just for fun will require out of the box thinking. Being in the robotics club will significantly develop these skills as you progress in assembling your robot.
In the robotics club, you will work in teams, whether or not you are building a robot for fun or for participating in a competition. Working with others allows students to strengthen their leadership skills and promote cooperation with others. If you have not considered Robotics Club yet, open your mind to it, since it will improve a wide range of skill sets.
