Robotics Professional learning
Wherever you are in your learning and teaching journey, we can help you explore and learn robotics for authentic STEAM learning opportunities and experiences, from basic to advanced.
Technical Training: Learn the “how to’s” of a range of common robots in the market:
- EV3
- Spike
- Dash and Dot
- Sphero
- Edison
- mBot
- Ozobot
- Dobot robotic arms
Embedding into the curriculum: We will help you learn where to access resources, examples of lessons/projects, how to go about designing your own novel activities, advice on incorporating into specific themes/units/contexts, troubleshooting and classroom device management do’s and don’ts, and more depending on your needs and wants.
Coding: depending on the robot(s) your school has, we can transform your teachers from zero to hero (or hero to superhero) in coding your robots to then transfer these skills to your students.
Competitions: whether VEX or LEGO we offer information, guidance and tips for successful participation in many different competitions.
Each session ranges from 1 hour to a full day and can be delivered on one day or over multiple days.
