Workshop on Coaching a FIRST LEGO League Challenge Teams Using Scratch to Program Their Robots
In 2021 ORTOP created a four-hour workshop that helps a coach or mentor learn about the programming features of EV3 Classroom and SPIKE Prime Word Blocks. The workshop is divided into four one-hour sessions. If you are new to robotics or programming you may want to focus on the material in the first two sessions and reserve the other two sessions until you and your students have more experience.
- All Slides Used in the Workshop
- Slides on converting certain version 2 blocks to version 3 equivalents At the time these workshops were created, Version 2 of the SPIKE Prime was the current version. In 2023, LEGO upgraded the app to Version 3. To simplify students' learning of programming with Word Blocks they dropped some blocks and reduced some options of other blocks. These slides describes what to do about certain Version 2 features when using Version 3.
