Programming Your Own VEX IQ Robot With Python
Class experience
Intermediate Level
This course is for students who have their own (or their school’s) VEX IQ robot at home and want to learn how to program it using Python text-based coding. You must have a physical VEX IQ robot 2nd generation to participate in this course. If you have 1st generation, please see one of my VEXCode classes, as the 1st generation brain cannot download Python. Students will also need a computer (not tablet) that will run Windows OS, Mac OS, or Chrome OS, as the Python programming does not work...
Students will learn text-based Python coding and will learn how to troubleshoot and solve problems with their code. They will also learn about the physical parts of the VEX IQ robots, including sensors, and how to transfer the code from the computer to the robot.
I am a Certified Robotics Instructor/Educator/Coach (VEX Robotics). I have taught VEX robotics programming since 2013 to students in public and private school settings and online since 2018. I have 5 public school teaching certifications/licenses: Technology Education. Grades 6-12. Expires 7/31/2023 (Texas) Technology Applications. Grades EC-12. Expires 7/31/2023 (Texas) Special Education. Grades EC-12. Expires 7/31/2023 (Texas) Computer Education. REPA 3, Grades 5-12. Expires 9/10/2023 (Indiana) Technology Education. REPA 3, Grades 5-12.

Homework Offered
The only homework might be to change something on the robot's physical build, i.e, add a sensor or other part.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
Learner assessment is real-time and informal. More formal assessment or grades are available to parents upon request.Grades Offered
By parent or student request.
Students with learning disabilities, dyslexia, ASD, ADHD or other learning challenges are welcome to participate. This course is text-based coding, so some basic typing skills are required.
Good basic computer skills and previous coding experience is a plus.

In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
Students will need to download the VEXCode software for IQ from this site: https://www.vexrobotics.com/vexcode/install/iq. No account creation is necessary.
VEX Robotics software and learning resources. I am a certified VEX Robotics instructor. I may post some VEX-related YouTube videos from other sources.
The classes I teach will help you learn how to use technology more effectively and learn how to turn your interests into academic and personal success. I have been a technology teacher for students in Grades 3-12 and have worked as a reading...
