Teaching physics with mBot

by | Maths, Physics, Ready Robots, Video tutorials

An example of a lesson, which can be introduced to primary school students.

In this tutorial, we show, how to use mBot robot during maths of physics lesson as a tool for explaining such physical terms as “speed”, “time”, “distance” and their relationships.

We present the basic code and a way of changing values of speed or time and comparing the results.

 

Coding with Airblock

by | Block programming, Blockly, Programming, Ready Robots, Video tutorials

Introductory tutorial to the Airblock robot drone designed by the Makeblock company and supported by the mBlock coding platform.

You will find here the implementation of a simple code, which can be used even during first lessons with kids starting their adventure with coding.

The drone starts to fly, does simple figures in the air and lands.

Important! For this exercise you’ll need rather high room and some space outside during the windless day. And never forget to add landing command to your code! If you do, it can fall down too quickly and fall apart.
