variables (week 3)

This week we started learning about input/output and variables using Finch Robots.  Programming students were very fast learners and really demonstrating their knowledge very quickly!  Every student passed their development process assessment, and we have been following that process for each activity in class.

Students first made a program that allowed them to use their keyboard to control a finch robot.  Students then used the image sensor of the finch and programmed the finch to navigate around obstacles.  Finally we had a Finch Got Talent singing competition and using different pitch values for their finch buzzers, students programmed their finch to play songs.

Check out tweets from this week at @np_techbiz if you want to see video from the finch bots in action during class!
