As the world moves rapidly into a technological age, there is equipment applicable for
everyone,
even to teachers in the classrooms. One such equipment is drones. Using drones in the
classroom
can help students learn about their environment in real time, making subjects such as the
sciences, geography simpler. It has also aided student in increasing their productivity in the
classroom.
Let’s assume that your school is given a grant to promote technology integration to create
modern day classrooms. As students you have decided to take up the responsibility to convince
the principal to consider the implementation of drones.
Prepare a PowerPoint presentation (using no more than 15 slides) for this task. Your
presentation
should include the following:
• What are drones?
• Types of drones (at least 3 types)
• How do drones work?
• The features of drones.
• Benefits and drawbacks of using drones.
• Point out how drones can be used in subjects such as Mathematics and Geography.
• Outline the use of drones in different aspects (training, entertainment).
• In one paragraph explain why your school should incorporate Drone Technology to
• benefit students.
• Pictures and other formatting features can be used to enhance your presentation.
Note: Resources can include, but are not limited to books, magazines, encyclopedias and
Internet
sites. Prepare a bibliography using APA guidelines.

What are drones?
Single-Rotor Drones
How do drones work?
Drones, also known as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), are
aircraft that can be operated remotely by humans or autonomously
through pre-programmed instructions. The basic principles of how
drones work involve aerodynamics, propulsion, control systems, and
communication technology. They combine principles of
aerodynamics, propulsion, control systems, and communication
technology to achieve flight and carry out a wide range of tasks,
from recreational flying to industrial and military applications.
Features of Drones are:
• Live Video Streaming: Many drones are equipped with cameras that
can transmit live video feeds to the operator's device in real-time,
providing a first-person view (FPV) from the drone's perspective.
• Efficiency: Drones can cover large areas quickly and provide detailed
data from hard-to-reach or hazardous locations.
• Safety: Using drones for tasks that involve risks to human safety, such as
inspecting power lines, bridges, or disaster-stricken areas, can help avoid
exposing workers to potentially dangerous situations
Drawbacks of using drones are:
• Regulatory Issues: Drone operations are subject to regulations and airspace
restrictions imposed by aviation authorities, which can limit their use in
certain areas and under specific conditions.
• Limited Flight Time: Most consumer drones have relatively short battery life,
limiting their operational time and requiring careful planning for longer
tasks.
Mathematics:
• Geometry and Trigonometry: Drones offer hands-on applications of geometry and
trigonometry. Students can learn about angles, distances, and measurements by
planning and executing drone flight paths and calculating distances between waypoints.
• Data Analysis: Students can collect data during drone flights, such as altitude, speed,
and distance. They can then analyze this data using mathematical concepts to draw
conclusions and make predictions.
Geography
• Field Studies: Drones allow students to conduct field studies remotely,
observing and collecting data from locations that might be difficult to
access otherwise.
