Engineering Turn Signals
Students work through the computational thinking process to create a program that mimics how a turn signal works on a vehicle using Blockly, a //code.Node,...
Digital Thermometer
Students use a //code.Node and a wireless temperature sensor to create a device that alerts the user to a fever.
Intruder Alarm
Students use their previous knowledge of coding to create a unique program that will alert them to an intruder. The process will include submitting their...
Step Counter
Students will use either the acceleration-y or acceleration-x //code.Node sensor and knowledge of their own gait to create a program that mimics a step...
Investigating Sound Levels
Students use the //code.Node sound sensor to investigate various sound levels and create a program to alert the user when the music from their earbuds...
What's the Origin?
Students take their previous knowledge of plotting ordered pairs and apply it to the layout of the //code.Node 5X5 LED array.
Clap On
Students are introduced to an invention from the 1980's that allows you to turn lights on and off by clapping your hands. Student then use Blockly to program...
Light Bulb Efficiency
Students apply their understanding of energy transfer and transformation to investigate and compare the efficiencies of two different light bulbs.
Automatic Nightlight
Students apply their understanding of light behavior to create a program that functions like a nightlight as well as investigating brightness (amplitude)...
Random Number Cube
Students will create a program, using the //code.Node motion sensor to mimic a number cube. Additionally, students will use basic probability concepts...
