Water on Mars | Teach with space T02

11 DEC. 2019 4407

In brief

Students will design and develop an entire space mission to Mars. The objective of the mission is to send a programmed LEGO rover to the surface of the Red Planet and study water state changes. Students will take temperature measurements and interpret the data collected to understand how the temperature of a substance evolves during a change of state (liquid to solid and solid to liquid).

Languages: English, French, German, Portuguese

Age range: 12-16 years old

Keywords: Rover, Mars, mission, program, sensor, change of state, temperature

Subjects: Technology, Programming, Physics

Students will learn:

To program a robot to reach a location
To collect data with a temperature sensor
To use robotic tools to explore scientific content
To develop scientific experiments and engineering skills, for determining and controlling individual experiment parameters
To design an experimental procedure to observe different types of state changes
To identify temperature steps on a graph
To schematise state changes
To model data or processes to answer scientific questions
To work and communicate together as a team
