Educate NXT PowerPoints INDEX • Educate NXT PowerPoints can be used: • In conjunction with Educate NXT the book or as a separate resource in the Robotics classroom. • By teachers to aid with lesson presentation or by students to aid their understanding of robotics concepts and LEGO NXT (Note: Programming solution slides can be found at the end of a number of PowerPoints. These slides should be removed if encouraging student autonomy in learning.) Created by Chris Bracken
