C6: Drone Technology

Challenge:

Design a Dream Drone that helps society while following safety and ethical rules.

Requirements:

  • Drawing sheet or small cardboard model

  • Sketch pens, glue, waste materials (straws, paper cups, caps, etc.)

  • Creativity and imagination

Steps:

  1. Think of a purpose: What will your drone do? (e.g., “MedicBot Drone” to deliver first aid, or “TreePlanter Drone” for reforestation).

  2. Sketch or build: Draw or make a small model showing the drone’s body, propellers, sensors, and special features.

  3. Name your drone and write a short paragraph:

    • What is its job?

    • How does it help people or nature?

    • What safety rules does it follow?

  4. Display it during your school’s STEM or Innovation Exhibition.

Example:

Drone Name: SkyHelper
Job: Deliver medicines to flood-affected villages.
Special Feature: Solar-powered propellers and voice alert system.
Safety Note: Flies only in approved zones and avoids populated areas.

Reflection Questions:

  • What did I learn about drone safety today?

  • How can I share these rules with others?

  • If I were a pilot, what would I always remember before flying?
