Learning outcomes
Understanding of basic coding concepts: Introduce the fundamentals of coding, such as sequence, loops, and conditionals, through fun and interactive activities.
Knowledge of robotics components: Teach students about the different parts of a robot, including sensors, motors, and controllers, and how they work together to make a robot move and perform tasks.
Creativity and problem-solving: Encourage students to use their imagination and creativity to design and build their own robots, and challenge them to find solutions to problems that arise during the building process.
Teamwork and communication: Foster teamwork and collaboration skills by encouraging students to work in pairs or small groups to design and build their robots, and to communicate with each other effectively to achieve their goals.
Understanding of real-world applications: Introduce students to real-world applications of robotics, such as manufacturing, space exploration, and healthcare, and encourage them to think about how robots can be used to solve problems in their own lives and communities.
Information for parents
Whether your child is completely new to coding and robotics, or has completed a BlueShift camp or course before, this course is perfect for them! Bringing a laptop is recommended if possible as students learn more effectively with a device that they are familiar with.
Camp structure
First off we'll get to know our teacher and classmates through some great mini games. Once we're all friends, we'll be introduced to our activity for the day. Let's jump in to coding!
Now that we've had a healthy snack, we're ready to get right back into our activity. We'll carry on flexing our creative muscles by designing, coding and building our project.
Let's refocus after lunch and playtime by diving into building our robots!
It's time to finish off our project for the day and show it off to the rest of the class. Time has flown by - lets tidy up our work stations, pack up our things and get ready to go home!
My favourite part was designing my own dinosaur!
