Comment on this resource
This learning module offers hands-on, minds-on activities investigating the Martian environment and robotic technologies of space exploration. The learning module contains 16 national standards-based lessons designed to progress logically from learning about Mars and why scientists and engineers want to explore Mars with robots (lessons 1 through 8) to the fundamental principles of robotics and how these principles are applied to design, construct, and test robotic explorer (lessons 9 through 16). The module is integrated to support fundamental concepts and skills in language arts, mathematics, and science. A background section along with teacher notes provide information needed to present each lesson.
