Discover Robotics and Coding with the Apprentice Level 1 Online Course!

The Apprentice Level 1 Online Course is an engaging entry into the world of robotics, coding, and digital creativity, perfect for young learners eager to bring technology to life. This 40-lesson course, designed to be used alongside our Micro:bit Fundamentals Kit and Apprentice Level 1 Learner Workbook, provides a solid foundation in digital and physical computing through hands-on projects and interactive coding challenges.

Starting with an introduction to robots and their role in our world, learners progress through the basics of secure digital identities and foundational coding principles. As they dive into Scratch, they’ll master using motion blocks, coordinates, events, and loops to animate sprites and build interactive stories. Through video guidance and quizzes, learners will gain confidence in Scratch and Resly code, creating animations that incorporate sound, movement, and custom backgrounds.

Beyond Scratch, learners explore the powerful Micro:bit, developing circuits and working with components like LEDs, switches, and sensors. Guided projects include simulations of traffic lights and a piano that lights up and plays music. With creative challenges in Micro:bit and Tinkercad, learners combine coding logic, sensors, and hardware for projects that showcase colour, motion, and sound. By the end, they’ll have developed problem-solving skills, creativity, and a deep understanding of digital and physical computing.

Course Highlights:

  • 40 Structured Lessons: A fun and comprehensive journey through coding and robotics.
  • Designed for the Micro:bit Fundamentals Kit and Level 1 Workbook: Ensures hands-on, practical learning.
  • Interactive Videos, Quizzes, and Mini Challenges: Reinforces understanding with guided support.
  • Scratch and Micro:bit Coding: From animations to circuits, learners create engaging projects.
  • Explore Digital Safety and Coding Logic: Covers essential topics for secure, ethical tech use.
  • Certificate of Completion: Celebrates learners’ progress and achievement in digital literacy.

Set the stage for your learner’s success in robotics and coding. Enrol in the Apprentice Level 1 Online Course today and watch their skills grow as they bring digital and physical creations to life!
