In FLL, the children program an autonomous robot using the Lego Mindstorms robot set to score points on a thematic playing surface, complete a science project and learn to teamwork.

The clinic will cover the three components of an FLL competition, tips and best practices for a FLL coach, timing of the 2016 season and an introduction into programming the EV3 robots. There is no cost for the seminar and no obligation to coach.
