This engaging documentary will teach students about robots in the real world and their impacts on society. They will follow contestants in the US Department of Defense’s DARPA Challenge as they build rescue robots and experience highs and lows throughout the competition.
All STEM in the Middle Movie Guides include before, during and after questions to keep your students engaged and learning throughout the entire "movie day." This means you are free to catch up on grades, hold conferences, hang out with your students, or take a much needed sick day.
Note: This video is no longer streaming on PBS, but you may be able to find it on other platforms, such as Youtube, Amazon, etc.
This resource includes:
- Printable PDF, Google, and Easel versions of the student activity
- 3 before the movie discussion questions
- 12 movie comprehension questions focused on robotics engineering and the role of robots in our society
- 3 after the movie tasks
- An answer key
Note: Please preview the video before using it with your students! There are two brief mentions of mature topics at the 27:10 and 29:49 minute marks. You may want to fast forward a few seconds at the designated times depending on the maturity of your students.
