Makeblock in Joint Efforts with the Education Department of Mexico Jalisco, Break Guinness Record of the World's Largest Robotics Class

Groups of 4 students were organized to program an mBot to follow the path and apply some LED effects using programming software mBlock. The students were taught to learn about the electronics and features of mBot, like path-following, ultrasonic sensor, LED, and then to learn about graphical programming through mBlock on a computer, and finally, to test mBot on a predefined path. This course was conducted to train the students' logics, problem solving and creative thinking skills.
