Creating Hardware-Accessible Learning with the Robotarium and Block Coding
Tyler Kinner, Sean Wilson, Avaye Dawadi · 2024
The Robotarium is a remotely-accessible, swarm robotics testbed using for research and development, as well as educational projects at the undergraduate and graduate level.To enhance the Robotarium's goal of democratizing access to real-world robotics hardware, we sought to bridge the Robotarium with K12 computer science education.In this paper, we will describe the development of a block coding interface, and the piloting of the interface in high school classrooms using a remotely facilitated instructional module.
