In this introduction to computer coding workshop participants will use colour and block coding to direct tiny Ozobot robots through a series of Mars related challenges. We will also explore how the Perseverance Rover and Ingenuity Helicopter will be used in upcoming missions to Mars.
This program is recommended for children ages 7 – 12. Children must be accompanied by adults. Adults are encouraged to participate in the workshop with their children.
Feel free to come dressed as your favourite robot, martian or space traveller for Halloween!
