Lesson Overview: Self Isolation
Objective: Students simulate virus containment through self-isolation protocols, using robots to model social distancing, data tracking, and real-world pandemic responses.
Activity: Program robots to limit movement, use ultrasonic/buzzer sensors for alerts, and create graphs analyzing infection reduction over 30 days. Apply crowdsourcing strategies for collaborative problem-solving.
Outcome: Students demonstrate how isolation flattens the curve, using computational tools to represent data and test bias/accessibility in solutions.
Resources: 6 robots, QR-coded objects, sensors (ultrasonic, IR, buzzer).
