FAQs

Q1 : Do I need to purchase anything for the in-person weekly classes?

Ans 1 : No, you do not need to purchase anything for the classes. The monthly fee includes the cost of the materials needed for the class. For the in-person classes we will provide all the materials and a robotic kit for hands-on experience during the classes.

Q2 : Where are the in-person classes held?

Ans 2: The in-person classes are held in Greenwood IN and Carmel IN area.

Q3 : How often are the classes held?

Ans 3: The in-person classes are typically once a week for 1-hour.

Q4 : What ages are the classes for?

Ans 4: We offer classes for kids 6 years and up. We typically groups kids 6 to 9 in one group and kids 10 and above in a different group.

Q5 : Does each kid work on their own or do they work in group with other kids?

Ans 5: That depends upon the specific type of activity. There are some activities where each student would work on their own and there are many activities where students work in a small group of 2 to 4.

Q6: Can I cancel anytime?

Ans 6: Yes, you enroll your kids in our classes and pay a flat monthly fee. You may continue for as many months as you like and cancel anytime. We recommend a minimum of 3-months as learning modules are separated into 3-months chunks. Each module covers a related group of robotics & engineering concepts and provides a comprehensive learning experience for your kids. After completing the first module, you may enroll in the next module for continued learning.

Q7: What would my kids learn?

Ans 7: Simply put, a LOT! Our classes in Robotics and Coding provide a great learning experience for your kid(s) as they will engage in many hands-on activities to learn about behind-the-scenes of robotics and coding. They will learn to build a robot that plays the drum incrementally. They will also learn coding. They will learn about core engineering concepts including designing, building, and programming. The classes are designed to spark their curiosity and creativeness. This experience will provide a solid foundation to garner their interest in engineering and technology at an early age. Open to kids 6 years and up.

Typically, the learning experience is grouped in different modules where each module is approximately 3-month long.

Module 1 (approximately 3-months): Basic concepts in robotics where kids learn about the parts needed to build a robot. They learn what parts are needed, what each part does, how each part works, how different parts work together to build a robot, and how to bring the robot to life. They engage in many hands-on activities to learn behind-the-scenes of robotics. They start learning about the basic concepts of programming and lean how the code works. They practice with a few simple code sketches. By the end of this module they would have built a robot that can play the drum and gotten an overview of the code that makes the robot do different things.

Module 2 (approximately 3-months): They build on what they learned in Module 1. They learn more advanced level of coding and practice creating different code sketches to make the robots do different things. They see immediate results of the changes they make to the code as the robot would perform different actions. They learn more advance concepts in coding as they learn about main commands used to construct the code sketches and learn to write code efficiently using Functions and For Loops. By the end of this module they would have worked on several code sketches and developed beginner/intermediate level of understanding about how to control various movements of the robot using code.

Q8: Do you offer classes at our location?

Ans 8: Yes, if you are able to have a minimum of 25 students, we can send our instructor to your location for the weekly classes.

Q9: How much do you charge to hold classes at our location?

Ans 9: We charge a flat monthly fee per student. Please see our website or contact us for accurate information on our current monthly rate. In addition to the monthly rate per student, there may be additional flat amount for the travel charge depending upon your location and travel time.
