In an effort to diversify the future of STEM fields, Root Robotics is making coding accessible for all ages, so young children can learn and become inspired, while playing.
Through combining music, art and adventure, this interactive system invites kids of all ages to try their hand at new skill. The system features three levels, the first of which, is geographical coding. This level, focuses on events, timing, looping and sequences. The next level, Computational Coding, uses variables, sensor values, parallelism and more. The third and most advanced level, Full Text Coding, teaches activities surrounding python, JavaScript, Syntax and more.
Each of these levels come equipped with a variety of easy-to-navigate games that bring the joy back into learning and inspire children to explore new creative avenues.
