Take Robotics to the Next Level with the Apprentice Level 2 Online Course!
Unlock the potential of robotics and coding with the Apprentice Level 2 Online Course, an exciting 40-lesson adventure that builds on foundational skills and introduces learners to advanced concepts in digital and physical computing. This course is designed to be used in tandem with our Apprentice Level 2: Car with Crane Expansion Pack and Apprentice Level 1 Learner Workbook, offering a fully immersive, hands-on learning experience.
Learners start with an in-depth exploration of humanoid robots, understand their parts and functions, and progress to creating flowcharts and algorithms that organise coding tasks. With interactive videos, quizzes, and mini-challenges, each lesson reinforces their learning and keeps them engaged as they build skills in coding and problem-solving. Through projects with the Micro:bit, learners will explore Morse code, program push buttons, and experiment with radio communication—using these skills to play games like Battleships and to create their own digital pet.
The course then shifts to hands-on mechanical engineering, where learners build and code a Micro:bit car with remote control functionality. They’ll learn to colour code with RGB LEDs, create melodies, and add sound for dynamic, interactive projects. As they explore mechanics, learners work with servo motors, pulleys, and structures to assemble a crane that lifts loads, integrating principles of robotics with practical engineering.
With an emphasis on real-world robotics, learners will program obstacle avoidance using ultrasonic sensors, experiment with infrared technology, and build line-following capabilities for their car. Each lesson encourages logical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity, setting learners up with a robust foundation in advanced robotics and coding.
Course Highlights:
Empower your young learner with skills in coding, mechanics, and robotics by enrolling in the Apprentice Level 2 Online Course. Start today to set them on a path toward mastering advanced technology!
