Mars Rover Races Activity with Accessibility Options

In this activity, students experience the processes involved in engineering a communication protocol. Students become the model rover, following communication protocol to the appointed destination. To reach their goals, students must create a calibrated solution within constraints and parameters of communicating with a rover on Mars. This activity continues to build students’ understanding of engineering design in pursuit of scientific objectives through basic programming.
