Programming SPIKE Prime robots in Word blocks

Webinar available for subscribers

Prepare to master the SPIKE programming app for your upcoming classes. This app allows to comprehensively control robots built from LEGO Education SPIKE Prime - the educational set created for kids and teenagers. At first glance, the programming language reminds of Scratch, but are they identical?
During this webinar, you will get to know Word blocks from top to bottom. You will learn the functionalities of the app interface, the differences between code blocks and their practical use. What's more, you will know how to avoid mistakes often made by beginners.

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

What's hiding inside SPIKE - which elements magically speed up the building process and how to make use of all the sensors, even those that seem hidden!

Practical look at the app - how to connect with the robot, effectively use the interface and what content prepared by the producer can be useful at school.

Learn the Word Blocks - overview of types and different categories of code blocks, how to connect them into lines of code, differences between Motors and Movement, how to program sensors, motors and the pixel matrix of the SPIKE hub.

See how to program robots with 4 models designed by RoboCamp: Spirograph, Forklift, Music box and Conveyor - each on a different difficulty level.

Find out what you must take into consideration when programming SPIKE at school.
