Ozobots - Mrs Badcock
We have available a set of Ozobot Bits. These little robots can be used to teach visual programming. Ozobot Evos are another version of these robots and these will also be purchased when they become available, which should be soon. The Evos can also be programmed with a device.
Programming using this robot fits in well with the programming skills section of the Digital Technologies Australian Curriculum and they can be used across learning areas. The Ozobot Bits are programmed using lines and colour codes drawn on paper. The variables include speed, direction, movement and timing.
The aim this year is to introduce the device to students and to teach students basic use and programming. Next year when students are more familiar with the basics, we can build on from the basics to use more complex design, programming and problem solving.
