Content for Scratch

Two fundamental concepts are essential for robotics competitions: ensuring the robot consistently navigates and positions itself accurately on the field and designing attachments that complete missions once the robot reaches its target. This course focuses on the first aspect - precise navigation and positioning - while the second is covered across the entire FLLCasts platform, starting with the FIRST LEGO League with LEGO Education SPIKE Prime. "Challenge" competition for 9-16 years old

The goal of this course is to help you learn how to program LEGO Education SPIKE Prime robots to operate consistently and reliably in competition settings. We use LEGO Education SPIKE App Word Blocks, a Scratch-based programming language, to teach key techniques applicable to FIRST LEGO League and World Robot Olympiad competitions. Topics covered include different methods for line following, such as fast, slow, smooth, and using multiple states, as well as techniques for line alignment, double alignment, and maintaining a straight path using the motion sensor.

This is the most detailed course we've ever created on preparing for a FIRST LEGO League robotics competition. It focuses on using LEGO Education SPIKE Prime to build a simple Box Robot. The course includes 25 lessons, making it suitable for both beginners and advanced students. It builds on over 10 years of experience providing example solutions and explanations for FIRST LEGO League robotics competitions.

This course is one of the popular courses in the FIRST LEGO League Robot Game. The Complete Guide. We highly recommend checking out the full guide!

This course presents Solutions and Review of the FIRST LEGO League 2020-2021 RePlay competition. We do such a course every year after the competition. By moving through the course lessons, building the robot and attachment and completing the missions you will learn how to achieve FLL mission following good engineering principles for building robots, attachments and developing programs. Upon completion of the course you will have many new ideas about how to approach mission on every FLL robotics competition and how to help your team score more points.

This course presents Solutions and Review of the FIRST LEGO League 2021 RePlay competition and it uses LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor as a base. It is a mirror course to the LEGO Education SPIKE course for the same competition. For each mission in the competition the course contains the rules for the mission, a tutorial how to accomplish it, instructions for the robot that is used and instructions for the attachment that is used. Every lesson also contains a Scratch and a Python program for accomplishing the mission and of course a 10 out of 10 tutorial that demonstrated how reliable the approach is. Upon completion of the course you will have many new ideas about how to approach mission on every FLL robotics competition and how to help your team score more points.

To successfully advance at competitions we need to understand two concepts - how to reliably and consistently navigate the field and position the robot exactly where we need it to be on every run, and how to build attachments that would accomplish a mission model once we have reached it. This course is focused on the first part. The second part is the whole FLLCasts platform, but start at FIRST LEGO League with LEGO Mindstorms Robot Inventor. "Challenge" competition for 9-16 years old.

The goal of this course is to help you learn to program LEGO Robots using Scratch and make them behave consistently and reliably during competitions. As a language we use LEGO MINDSTORMS App Word Blocks which is based on Scratch. We look at a lot of concepts that could be used for FIRST LEGO League and World Robot Olympiad competitions - for example, how to follow a line fast, slow, in a smooth way, with 5 states. Also, how to align to lines, how to do double align, how to keep a straight line with a motion sensor.

Unfortunately, LEGO discontinued the robot series during the making of this course which is why it's kind of shortish. You could use the SPIKE Prime course for a more in-depth analysis.
