Students quickly learn the simple click-and-drag icons to activate a motor, which might also be dependent on a sensor, in a logical and sequential schema.įor the more capable, and even older students of Grades 3 & 4, LEGO’s WeDo programming platform also allows for mathematical operations and display effects, as a stepping-stone to game design and entertainment. The fun and learning is enhanced when the programming of the models is introduced. Students then follow the build process step by step using the same LEGO instructions we have grown accustomed to, as they work collaboratively in learning described by Dr Seymour Papert as Constructionism. One example is by choosing an activity from the 12 themed options. There are multiple ways to guide the students along the learning path. As with other LEGO Education products it follows the 4 C’s process – Connect to a story, Construct a model, Contemplate its function, and Continue improving its design. LEGO WeDo is a robotics hardware and software platform specifically designed for Kindergarten to Grade 2 students.
