Before you begin

You’ll guess what might happen, make a choice, test it, and explain what changed. Wrong guesses are allowed (and encouraged).

How to use

  1. Read the challenge.
  2. Build or choose a model.
  3. Test it.
  4. Improve it.
  5. Explain why your final choice works.

Learning goals

  • Put instructions in the right order to reach a goal.
  • Predict where the robot will go before pressing Go.
  • Spot a wrong step and fix it.

Think again

What surprised you? What are you still not sure about? What would you test next?

About this prototype

Version 1, a working prototype. It hasn’t been tested with classes yet, so I’m not claiming any learning results.
