Awesome! Always a good idea to follow tutorials before jumping in and teaching a class. Contact Us for assistance to links to tutorials to catch up before your next class.

A sleep command is a programming command used to delay between commands. Find out more with the tutorials :).

Looking forward to seeing more activities from you like this - that's great!

@paulsk Great job! It's nice to see people helping kids get a start in new tech.

I was wondering, though, did you have any ideas on what might make RoboScratch more kid friendly and/or intuitive? Also any ideas for a script or scripts you would like to have for helping get certain points across to the kids, such as the usefulness of Sleep statements?

Hello Paul ! I am glad to hear you have used Ez Robot to teach a workshop. I would love to talk more about what you did , the kinds of activities and what you would have perhaps done different on your part to make things better. I am looking at starting a STEM workshop in my area and any input you can provide for those first classes would be great ! Kandyred@gmail.com

@DJ Sures, yes we did see the tutorials, the problem was we had a group of students who were working with the bots aged between 8 and 15, they were so excited about robots they just wanted them to go. In hindsight and before any more workshops I will be producing a short annotated video that I will run before we jump into programming

It would be nice to have scripted commands that would combine the move and sleep frames so there was an opportunity to place a variable into the command to make it move and wait xxxx mS before continuing - just about every other bot I use has this capability (although LEGO in their wisdom choose to hold the 'speed' variable to last known value, which is also annoying as you can start a new program with the speed set to 0!)

@jstarne1 feel free to contact me on paul@childrensworlduk.com I will try and answer any questions you have.
