Good afternoon, colleagues.
For me, a robotics kit is a universal tool. I often use it to demonstrate complex concepts to students in a clear and simple way. For example, yesterday I was explaining the law of the lever to one of my students. To do this, I quickly built a model like this using VEX GO. It’s very simple and convenient.
What do you think about using robotics kits in this way?

100%. I often talk about Robotics being a medium - just like (for example) painting. Robotics can be used for many different applications in your classroom.

Good afternoon.
Thank you for the links, and I 100% agree with you. If you’re interested, you can read my thoughts on this topic in my blog. I have been working in educational robotics for more than 20 years.
