Robotical Cog brings coding to life by offering students an interactive and engaging way to learn programming.
Students can choose to code using junior or regular blocks, making it accessible for different skill levels. Our platform provides the flexibility to save their work directly to their devices or to execute their code in real time, allowing for immediate feedback and experimentation. This hands-on approach not only makes learning to code fun but also helps solidify programming concepts through practical application.
A step-in to block-based programming with text-free symbols and a horizontal layout, suitable for emerging readers. This environment is based on ScratchJr so should be very familiar to pupils who have used this program. In this environment, learners will see their code come to life both through their physical Cog and via an in-app sprites. Learners can even personalise the sprite and the virtual backgrounds.
Suitable for confident readers, Blocks is an extension to Blocks Jr and introduces more functionality through a vertical layout. This environment is based on Scratch and allows for progression beyond elementary school with more advanced work. As code is organized vertically, learners can develop longer blocks of sequences (more similar to how code is written in text).
With Robotical Cog, students can program lights to flash in different patterns and colors. This teaches them loops, timing, and sequencing, offering a visually engaging way to grasp coding basics and physical computing principles.
Using Robotical Cog, students can create a reaction test game that measures response times with sensors. This activity teaches conditional statements and timing functions, making coding interactive and fun.
Robotical Cog allows students to program a musical instrument that turns inputs into sounds. This creative activity combines art and technology, reinforcing input/output processing and variable manipulation.
Robotical Cog enables students to use sensors to detect tilt or movement, helping them learn about real-time data processing and feedback loops. It’s a dynamic introduction to sensor integration in coding.
With Robotical Cog, students can create a timer for exercise intervals, teaching them about timers, counters, and signal outputs. This links coding with practical, everyday applications.
Using Robotical Cog to control a Marty robot helps students understand robotics and remote programming. They learn command sequences and sensor integration, seeing their code in action.
Robotical Cog enables students to program systems that collect sensor data. This introduces them to data acquisition and processing, showing how coding can gather and analyze real-world information and laying a foundation for more advanced applications.
