Andrea Canesi, Teacher: mBot 1.0: ideal to teach coding, but also electronics and physics. It's higly expandable, you can create your sensor and use it within the robot. It's based on Arduino, it's easy to find a lot of expansions that can be built by the students.
mBot Ranger: It can be used in an open environment, is robust and can be expanded as mBot 1.0.
mBot 2.0: less expandable, but more precise due to the change of motors.
It has a lot of sensors on board, can be connected to a wifi network and can send to and receive data from other robots or the network
Nicola, Tutor & trainer: It’s very attractive and engaging for students. It has a low entry but unlimited potential. For KS1 &KS2 it’s a great product to enhance Computing and Science lessons.
Ben, KS2 Teacher: An excellent tool for learning and creative thinking, which is simple to use and can be deployed effectively across all of primary school.
Simone, Y6 Teacher and Computing Subject Lead: The children LOVE it - it allows progression from live control to code to block code (scratch is widely used in the school) meaning that the kits can serve a wide variety of year groups. The robust design is perfect for schools too. The computational thinking that the children go through whilst they think they are playing is simply the BEST part.
