Introducing Botley
™
, the Coding Robot
Coding is the language we use to communicate with computers.
When you program Botley using the included Remote Programmer,
you are engaging in a basic form of “coding.” Beginning with the
very basics of sequence programming is a great way to get started in
the world of coding. So why is learning this so important? Because it
helps teach and encourage:
1. Basic coding concepts
2. Advanced coding concepts like
If/Then
logic
3. Critical thinking
4. Spatial concepts
5. Collaboration and teamwork
