About this Event

This workshop will be held at MakeIT at Jurong (Level 2 within Jurong Regional Library).

About the Programme

Develop your coding skills in this hands-on workshop by using the Qdee robots available at our MakeIT at libraries Makerspaces. The Qdee is a wheeled educational robot that works with Microbit*, providing a great entry point for those interested in coding and robotics, but are not sure where to begin.

* The Microbit is a pocket-sized computer that has been introduced in many schools world-wide to encourage students to come up with innovative solutions with coding.

In this beginner-friendly introduction to coding and robotics, participants learn to:

• Program a robot to drive in different directions using your own written programs
• Code using make:code, a block-based programming language for the Microbit that makes coding more accessible to users
• Use robotic sensors to sense the environment and make decisions based on what is sensed
• No programming knowledge is needed to participate.

Programme is suitable for beginners.

Recommended for participants of age 10 and above.
