 Lego Mindstorms EV3 Coding - Kanban boardIn coding class today, the kids continued to build the massive Spinner Factory robot. But today I introduced them to a simple Kanban board to keep track of what was built. The instructions include 465 steps.

In coding class we finished the code for the ellaphants we built. The kids made a program that would use the robot keypad buttons to control what it did. Up button to make the elephant walk forward. Down button for backward. Left button for head tilt and trunk trumpeting. And right button for picking up an object.

Lego Mindstorms EV3 - Motorcycle

Lego Mindstorms EV3 Design diagramIn today's coding class we started on a motorcycle robot. It will use the gyroscopic sensor to keep itself balanced on 2 wheels.  All they had for instructions was a video showing a working Lego motorcycle. No build instructions and no programming instructions.

孩子們兼天的挑戰是製造一個機車,沒有任何的參考或是說明,只有一張最後的成果圖!挺有趣的!!!

 

Lego Mindstorms EV3 - 機器狗完成!

The coding class finished programming their recent robot. They learned how to have multiple threads of program execution and how to interrupt one thread from another and how to use global variables as flags to send quick messages across threads.

利用multiple threads和program execution, 機器狗終於完成了!

Lego Mindstorms EV3 - Multi-Thread Programming

Submitted by Jenny on

In this week's coding class we discussed program threads and how Lego Mindstorms software allows kids to create multi-threaded programming.  The kids finished building the Znap robot from instructions and then started programming it with only the rough outline that was written on the board as a guide. They need to use multiple loops, variables, and a new loop interrupt instruction.

這星期我們探討了電腦程式裡的multi-threading功能,利用Lego Mindstorms的程式設計軟體,孩子們練習了multiple loops, variables, 還有 loop interrupt。

 

Code Club/程式設計社團

Submitted by Jenny on

Scrach是由麻省理工學院開發,專門為為8歲到小六孩子孩子們設計的學習電腦程式設計

語言家特別在春季推出Hour of Code:  學習電腦設計及英文的社團,在設計中學習,不斷的啟發思考能力

由世界級資深前端工程師,John Wilkins,擔任主要講師/Club Master

從Scracth 開始,到Khan Academy的Javascript,進階到Lego Mindstorms EV3的程式設計,都是我們會安排的課程

第一次聚會將在03/16下午1:30舉行,每次聚會1.5小時

全程用英文教學,有資深英文老師在旁輔導(中、英文輔助),在學習邏輯性思考的同時,也加強英文能力,一舉數得

名額有限,有興趣者,歡迎詢問
