We work with robotics, because robotics are tools that allow them to learn coding and to learn abstract logic and thinking while not sitting in front of a computer screen. So robots have motors, they have sensors, they can move around. Each block represents a command for the robot. So same as with a robot.

Buy a few Sphero’s for each class for students to code, problem solve, engage with robotics, work with a peer, create, do math and so much more. You can operate a Sphero from an iPad, your iPhone/Android or even an iPod, it’s so simple to get started! Sphero’s should be a staple in all of our classrooms.

The purists feel that students are too deeply rooted in technology and do not know how to use or read results on a basic tool, such as a thermometer or pH paper. The belief is that students must learn how to master the basic tools before they can move on to the digital tools, which theoretically do most of the work for the user.
