Lego Robotics Applied ICT & logic workshop in a fun coding environment for primary students Enquire Now 🤖 Robotics & Engineering: Automated Systems LEGO Robotics EV3 Mindstorms: Sensors, Logic, and Movement What makes a robot different from a remote-controlled car? In this intensive engineering workshop, students transform LEGO bricks into autonomous machines. Using EV3 Mindstorms technology, your classroom becomes a robotics lab where code meets the physical world. Our experienced presenters guide students through the intuitive drag-and-drop programming interface, removing the barriers of complex syntax so they can focus on logic and problem-solving. Students learn to bridge the gap between software and hardware by programming precise movements and calibrating advanced environmental sensors. Hardware & Software Integration: Precise Navigation: Calculate rotations and degrees for exact movement. Sensory Input: Program robots to respond to light, sound, and touch. Loop Logic: Use iterative code to create persistent autonomous behaviors. Creative Engineering: Design routines or challenges based on student ability. Real-Time Debugging: Test, fail, and iterate to achieve mission success. Hands-On STEM Experts Led by Ben Newsome (Churchill Fellow), we provide all laptops and LEGO EV3 kits for a seamless, professional school incursion. 4 Million+ Students Inspired since 2004 Trustpilot Reviews Check Availability Available for Full Day or Multi-Session visits.
