This 5-lesson course introduces students to the fundamentals of robotics and programming using the VEXcode VR platform. Each lesson is crafted to build upon the previous, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of coding concepts and their practical applications. We will use block based programming which is ideal for beginners. Lesson 1: Coral Reef Cleanup Students program a virtual robot to identify and remove pollutants from the ocean floor, emphasizing environmental responsibility and sensor-based navigation. Lesson 2: Disk Mover An introduction to VEX VR, where students learn basic robot movements and object manipulation using the Disk Mover playground. Lesson 3: Castle Crasher Learners enhance their coding skills by programming the robot to interact with virtual structures, focusing on precision and control. Outschool Lesson 4: Maze Runner Students tackle dynamic mazes, employing loops and conditional statements to navigate through obstacles effectively. Lesson 5: Number Grid A creative session where students use pen blocks to draw patterns and numbers, reinforcing their understanding of coordinates and sequences. **Materials Needed: A computer with internet access.
Learning Goals
By the end of the course, students will have a solid foundation in block-based coding, an appreciation for robotics, and the confidence to pursue more advanced programming challenges.
