Details

Game-making with Scratch (2 days)

Scratch is a programming language based on visuals and animation, rather than lines of code. It allows students to drag and drop programming instructions presented in visual blocks instead of typing them out.

Participants will also learn key computer science concepts such as sequences, loops, conditionals and abstraction by building a game at the end of the workshop.

Mbot (3 days)

The mBot has some of its own special Scratch blocks to help is make its way in the world. These include;

Making the motors run,
Lighting LEDs,
Detecting obstacles with the ultrasonic rangefinder,
Following lines with the line following sensor, and
Playing tones.

There are a heap of other blocks we can use that allow us to interact with other sensors and actuators we can add to the mbot. Here is the list of blocks available.

WHAT TO BRING

A laptop (PC/Mac) with charger

Website

Coders Passion is a provider of STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Math) education services in Singapore. In order to prepare students as effective 21st century citizens, we need to provide them with the opportunity to learn all the digital skills, necessary for them to use relevant technology and teach them how to use that knowledge responsibly. We believe this can be accomplished by developing what is known as the "Seven C's". These C's include: critical thinking; creativity and innovation; collaboration; cross-cultural understanding and communication.

We believe that a learner must be given the freedom to play and experiment, as this experience is part of their lifelong learning journey. We believe in empowering our students with control over their learning experience, where all inquiries are treated as constructivist models for them to personally and socially manipulate.
