mBot 2.0: Let's Move! (Gr. 3-8)
Description
In this lesson, students will learn that robots are autonomous machines that replace human effort; they can perceive their environment and perform computer programs to make decisions and take actions. A computer program is a set of instructions and conditions run by a computer to perform a task. Students will learn that robots can take many different shapes and have different capabilities depending on their context. For example, robots are present in households, such as the vacuum cleaner robot or a lawn mowing robot; you can also find them in factories assembling products and even sent robots to other planets.
Objectives
- Students will learn what movements mBot2 can do
- Students will learn what different programming blocks you can use to make the mBot2 move
