Using Interactive Technology to Teach Basic Algorithmic Instructions

Description

Interactive technology can be used to teach programming concepts to students more easily. Technology can seem hard to understand and scare off students with little understanding of it. The Technical Ambassador Program introduces some basic concepts through new and exciting technologies to show people that technology can be fun. The focus of the project is to teach students what an algorithm is and how it works while using interactive technology to pique their interest. The students will be asked to write a program that navigates a Cozmo inside a maze, retrieves a block, and returns it to the user.

Setup and Installtion

  1. Download the Cozmo App (it can be found on the Google Play store and the Apple store).
  2. Connect to Cozmo through its wifi (move its lift up and down and the wifi password will appear).
  3. You should be connected to Cozmo now!

How to run it / Usage

Cozmo comes with a bunch of different activites that it is able to perform such as an Explorer Mode where the user can navigate it with the smart device connected, a visual progrramming mode where users are able to code Cozmo to do certain actions with block coding and much more.
