Micro-credentials

Introducing Robot Coding

The educator will use block-based coding to apply the concepts of move, turn, and loops to control the movements of an educational robot.

Applying Intermediate Robot Coding

The educator will use block-based coding to apply the concepts of delay, conditionals, and infinite loops to control the movements of an educational robot.

Applying Advanced Robot Coding

The educator will use block-based coding to create code and solve complex challenges involving an educational robot.

Designing Lessons: Educational Robots

The educator will design a lesson plan (including well-aligned context, learning standard(s), learning objective(s), activity description, and assessment criteria) in which educational robotics is meaningfully used to promote learning.
