VEX IQ brings Robotics and Computer Science to life for all students at all skill levels. This class gives kids a chance to design, build, and program a VEX IQ robot and then solve a series of exciting challenges while developing their skills. Kids will learn three different coding languages - Block-based, Python, and C++. Our Vex Certified Teachers will teach kids how to configure and drive a robot and develop programming skills quickly. In the fall our robotics team can participate in the VEX Robotics Competition. VEX Robotics hosts the world’s largest robotics competition for students all over the world to compete against one another using a robot of their own design. In the VEX IQ Competition, classroom STEM concepts are put to the test as students learn lifelong skills in teamwork, leadership, communications, and more. Tournaments to determine the best teams are held year-round at the regional, state, and national levels and culminate at the VEX Robotics World Championship. VEX IQ Competition teams of students are tasked with designing and building a robot to play with other teams in a game-based engineering competition. Classroom STEM concepts are put to the test as students learn lifelong skills in teamwork, leadership, communications, and more.
