cGO Primary School Summer Camp at WIT
After 2 days of workshops with two groups of 20 kids aged 7-11, the cGo platform has advanced to a satisfactory level. The video below is a short preview of the 2 days.
We started out with some demonstrations and then a programming workshop.
The childrens programs were then tested on the cGO's
Future improvments:
- Demonstrate more robots (Bengie, rubix solver etc.)
- More cGO's
- No more than 3 children per group
- Improve master algorithms
- More props for games (scoreboard, timer, buzzer)
- More space for testing
