The program offers a hands-on approach to computer science and AI literacy using Sphero BOLT+ robots, emphasizing both technical skills and ethical considerations.
Students in the "Hello, World: Computer Science Foundations, Robotics & AI Literacy" program will develop foundational computer science skills, including programming and problem-solving. Through hands-on challenges with Sphero BOLT+ robots, they will learn to apply programming fundamentals using blocks and JavaScript to bring their robots to life and solve robotics missions. The curriculum also delves into the world of cybersecurity, expanding AI literacy skills, and grappling with the ethical considerations of artificial intelligence. Participants will explore the difference between traditional programming and machine learning, and use critical thinking skills to solve robotics challenges individually and as part of a team. The course aims to empower students to leverage technology and understand its impact in an ever-evolving world.
A typical day involves hands-on challenges with Sphero BOLT+ robots, applying programming fundamentals, and exploring concepts in cybersecurity and AI literacy.
This course is ideal for incoming sixth to eighth graders who are curious about computer programming and computer science and want to understand how to leverage technology.
