Robolink Introduced the CoDrone EDU to Celebrate Heritage and Learning
Debra John — November 29, 2024 — Social Good
Robolink introduced the 'CoDrone EDU' as an engaging way for families to celebrate holiday traditions while learning about coding and technology. During Hanukkah, from November 28 to December 6, participants can enjoy the 'Gelt Grab' activity, where the CoDrone EDU is used to locate and collect gelt hidden in an indoor space, blending festive fun with educational coding.
On Christmas Day, the 'Santa’s Drone Workshop' allows families to teach coding through a challenge where CoDrone EDUs simulate delivering gifts to specific locations; this activity reinforces the theme of gift-giving while providing an interactive way to learn basic programming skills.
Similarly, during Kwanzaa, from December 26 to January 1, the 'Build-A-Mkeka Race' involves CoDrone EDUs to gather items representing Kwanzaa’s principles. Teams race to complete their mkeka setups and discuss the cultural significance of each item. Through these activities, Robolink offered a fun and educational way to celebrate holiday traditions with technology.
