Digital Technology Robot Creation

Our students in 8F have been using the LEGO Education Spike Robot resources in their Digital Technology classes. Using the system, the students build a new robot every lesson and then code it to sense colour, make noise, pick up things, move or turn.

These activities are part of our process of trialling Spike to be included in our Digital Technology curriculum. We are planning to launch this exciting new unit of SPIKE Robotics next year for all Year 8s who have enrolled in the Digital Technology elective.
