With adult coaches to guide them, FIRST LEGO League teams apply science, engineering, and math concepts, plus a big dose of imagination, to develop solutions to real-world challenges. They also design, build and program LEGO MINDSTORMS-based robots to perform autonomous "missions" on a playing field. Along the way, they develop critical thinking, team--building, and presentation skills.
