In primary schools, students are grasping early concepts of programming while fostering 21st century skills, whether they’re replicating the solar system, programming characters in a story, or painting geometric shapes with the robot. Students learn to think and act like engineers, exposing them to real world problems and the 4C’s (collaboration, communication, creativity, and critical thinking).
At the secondary level, students explore more advanced concepts of logic, design thinking, and computer science. With more complex variables, sensors and text programming, students in these years are taking programming to the next level and actually learning the foundations of JavaScript.
Sphero products align with important trends and hot topics in education today. Through creative programming activities, our robots provide opportunities for students to learn by doing through a more open-ended model. We inspire young minds to learn the skills of the future and embrace careers in technology as computer science backgrounds become more and more necessary.
