AlgoPlay 101 - Emerald Park

AlgoPlay Curriculum Overview:
Young Engineers embraces the spiral learning technique, where each enrichment program is built upon the previous one.

In the AlgoPlay curriculum, utilizing the coding language of Algobrix®, students first assemble a building block model. They then formulate various code sequences using tangible or screen function and parameter blocks. By activating the “play” block, the robot executes the coding sequence. When students combine function and parameter blocks, they instruct the robot with specific commands, like moving forward or activating a red light.

Each lesson encompasses advanced programming tasks, such as algorithm planning, conditioning, loops, multithreading, debugging, race condition, sensor applications, and more.

AlgoPlay prepares students with the essential skills to grasp the logic behind most modern coding languages.
