Robotics Teams and Program

Robotics and Engineering Technology

Course Description:

The purpose of the Robotic and Engineering Technology course is to develop the skills and knowledge of students in Robotics, Engineering, Science, Mathematics, and Computer Science (STEM - Subjects). The curriculum will help students unlock the power of their imagination by designing and constructing radio-controlled robotic devices that can lift, throw, climb, gather, and expand the boundaries of experimental intelligence. The system gives students a fun, new way to learn STEM subjects. By working together to create robots that perform exciting challenges, they also gain valuable problem-solving and team-building skills.

Program:

CCA has been involved with the FIRST robotics competitions since 2009. Currently the longest running team for the school is managed by Mr. Remington in the Robotics course. Students in the course learn how to design, build, and program robots on the NXT-Tetrix platform then form a team to compete in many San Diego FTC competitions.


There are three other teams at CCA managed and operated through student clubs. Students are enchoraged to take the robotics course and then get involved with the club teams once they have experience.
