Robocon Technology
At Nguyen Binh Khiem Secondary & High School, we are proud to be pioneers in integrating cutting-edge science and technology into general education. One of our most practical and innovative programs is Robocon Technology, introduced as a special module under career skills development and technology-oriented learning for both lower and upper secondary students.
This program goes beyond simply assembling robots — it’s a journey to spark scientific curiosity, strengthen logical thinking, and foster teamwork through hands-on projects with highly applicable Robocon models.
Program Objectives
- Provide fundamental knowledge of robotics: programming, mechanical structures, basic electronics, and operation principles.
- Develop design thinking, problem-solving skills, and quick technical reflexes in simulated environments.
- Inspire and nurture students’ passion for technology from an early age.
- Offer career orientation in automation, mechatronics, and artificial intelligence for students with interest and potential.
Curriculum Overview
- Basic Theory of Robotics: Mechanical structure, drive systems, sensors, and control circuits.
- Programming & Control: Arduino or Micro:bit programming, depending on age and level.
- Hands-on Assembly: Students work in teams to design and build functional robots, from concept to completion.
- Robocon Simulated Competitions: Class and school-level tournaments to practice technical skills and competitive spirit.
Teaching Team & Learning Facilities
- Led by experienced STEM and ICT teachers specialized in electronics and robotics, with strong backgrounds in coaching for competitions.
- Students have access to fully-equipped labs, robot kits, and dedicated spaces for assembly and testing.
Achievements & Recognition
- Nguyen Binh Khiem students have won multiple awards in science and engineering competitions at district and city levels with self-driving and remote-controlled robots.
- The Robocon program is recognized as one of the school’s outstanding initiatives for skills-based and experiential education.
