My Project

My military connected students will greatly benefit from being able to apply their computer science skills to robots. We are increasing in class size and will need more Finches. The students love being able to see the effects of their computer science coding skills readily come to life. They are able to get immediate feedback on if they coded the robots correctly.

The mats with the Finches will be a great addition to hands-on programming in computer science.

The mats will allow for a smooth surface for the Finches to roll on in the classroom. The Finches will be able to run easier on the mats to help contain them when used with our younger or special needs classes.
