Students will learn the basics of coding utilizing a virtual VEX Robot. We will cover basic movement of the robot using concepts such as distance, time, and rotations as well as how to control using loops and conditional statements. Students will learn basic commands as well as structuring more complex commands by combining the concepts covered. We will complete challenges to try to learn better and be more efficient. We will use some short lecture followed by collaborative discussion and demonstration to help each other learn and get better. All programs can be downloaded for future use in the simulator or on their own robot.
Learning Goals
Students will learn the basics of coding as it applies to the operation of the VEX robotics system. Concepts will translate to other more complex coding languages.Other Details
Supply List
I would suggest using the Chrome Browser for the simulator we will use for a robot. Some people have reported issues trying to get on with iPads. While this should work, I would recommend a computer (Mac or Windows PC) or a Chromebook as I have fully tested those. We may refer to these websites for examples and links in addition to virtual presentation. https://vr.vex.com/
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
