With the eXperiBot Blockly app, the visual code editor for the eXperiBot educational robot from Cornelsen Experimenta, programming becomes tangible. The app is designed for use in school lessons and offers students from the 5th grade onwards an exciting introduction to programming. The intuitive drag-and-drop operation of the block editor and the simple and fast execution of programs on the eXperiBot educational robot clearly and practically convey programming concepts such as conditions, loops, and variables. With the three available learning levels that build on each other, the scope and complexity of the available programming blocks can be adapted according to individual learning pace.
