What cyBER is about:
Beloit Memorial High School is very excited to begin an after school
robotics program for our middle school students. This year, we are attempting to create three (3)
FIRST Lego League (FLL) teams. Each team can have four to ten students and will have a lead
advisor/coach and high school student mentors to work with. The team builds and programs a robot
made of Lego Mindstorms (EV3) to perform a series of tasks. The team then travels to a competition,
competing with other teams from around the state (or elsewhere) in early November to see whose
robot performs the tasks best.
What is FIRST Lego League?
FIRST stands for “For Inspiration and Recognition of Science and Technology”. The organization
was founded in 1989 by inventor Dean Kamen to help students
Apply real-world math and science concepts
Create student enthusiasm for technology
Learn critical thinking, team-building and presentation skills
Participate in tournaments and celebrations
