Lesson 2
Expanding Square Search
Students learn about and discuss how drones are used in search and rescue (SAR) operations. Then, they code Hopper to fly in an expanding square search pattern to simulate an aerial search where the general location of a lost individual is known.
Learning Objectives
-Participate in a group discussion about the use of drones in search and rescue operations.
-Accurately code Hopper to fly in an expanding square search pattern.
-Use the Engineering Design Process (EDP) and STEM practices to redesign Hopper’s code as needed.
