Work on successively more difficult coding challenges. Requires a PC or MacTM (laptop or desktop), or a ChromebookTM, tablet or iPadTM, and internet access for Zoom® and other web-based applications. The web tool is LEGO® SPIKE Prime, EV3 and NXT compatible. No LEGO® or robotics products are needed for this course.
