Idaho TECH Challenge

Our school participated in the NASA sponsored Idaho TECH Challenge competition this spring.  It was a fantastic experience for the students.  I would recommend it to any group.  LEGO Technics are used to design a Mars Rover.  The rover competes in weight, speed, hill climb, rock collection, and a blind driving test.  Teams are also evaluated on their lab notebooks, team poster, and presentation.  It was a lot to complete with a team of only three fourth grade students, but I think we will have a bigger team next year.  Fun! Fun! Fun!
