Programming Edison Robots Using EdScratch

This lesson takes place in a classroom over two weeks. Students may work in small groups of 2-3. Prior to the robotics challenge, teachers should facilitate student discussion through guided lessons

In this engaging lesson students are introduced to the key computational concept of variables using Edison robots and the Scratch-based programming language EdScratch4. Variables, which can be created

Building on the programming concepts explored in part 1, this lesson asks students to re-imagine the ‘spiral-out’ program to be a spiral-in program instead. Designed to be a stepping-stone activity to
