Python Basics Robotics Course (Ages 9+)
 
Course Overview: This beginner-friendly course introduces kids to Python programming and robotics. They’ll learn Python language fundamentals, build projects using Raspberry Pico, and create simple games using Pygame.
 
EXAMPLE PROJECTS: • Python’s If-elif-else Mysteries (PYBASICS103): Work with strings, functions like len(), and character extraction. • Loops and For Loops (PYBASICS104): Learn how to create and use loops for repeated actions. • Operators (PYBASICS107): Explore Python operators like +, -, /, and *. • Blinking Christmas Lights (PYBOT101): Control LEDs with Raspberry Pico using Python. • Detecting Distance with Ultrasonic Sensor (PYBOT102): Build a distance detector and blink lights conditionally. • Pong Game with Python (PYGAME001): Use Pygame to program and control objects in a classic Pong game.
 
LEARNING OUTCOMES FOR YOUR CHILD: By the end of the course, kids will: • Understand the basics of Python, including variables, loops, operators, and debugging. • Gain hands-on experience with Raspberry Pico and learn to control hardware using Python. • Explore robotics fundamentals, including sensors and outputs like LEDs. • Build logic-driven programs using if-elif-else conditions and loops. • Develop problem-solving skills through debugging and creating custom Python projects. • Create simple games with Pygame, understanding game mechanics like object movement and collisions.
