HomeWorkshop: Ranger Bots

Ranger Bots

The mBot Ranger robot from MakeBlock can do amazing things by attaching basic sensors and coding their functions to control the robot.  This new workshop will introduce you to more fun problem-solving activities in the world of robotics.

In this 8-week workshop you’ll learn the basics, starting with simple block-style command structure similar to "Scratch 3.0" to see the results fast. Then you will learn to manipulate real code based on Python.  Each lesson shows you a new concept you can master and builds your skills so you’ll be ready to tackle more advanced concepts later.

The final day will be a competition for all the robots to display their potential.



Pictured right: The mBot Ranger robots are lined up ready for their first day with you!  They can also be rebuilt into other configurations.
