Learning to Write Code

My Project

These programmable robots will help my students learn to write code and create solutions to problems that occur in their programs as well as in the physical environment, as they code the robots to move about and interact with elements in their environment.

Writing code helps students learn how to construct and debug algorithms and this will help them to think logically, creatively, and critically.

Furthermore, as students work with these robots, they will learn problem-solving skills that will assist them in their future at school and in their careers.
