For Microcontrollers, challenges could be focused on creating basic
electronic circuits and implementing control logic or on applying
acquired skills in microcontroller programming to efficiently design and execute
specific tasks, emphasizing real-world applications and problem-solving.
For Coding, challenges could cover algorithms aiming to enhance overall
programming proficiency or utilize coding skills to analyse complex problems,
design efficient solutions.
For web Development, challenges could explore HTML, CSS, and JavaScript,
emphasizing the creation of visually appealing and interactive web pages or
applying web development skills to design and implement dynamic websites,
focusing on user experience and responsive design.
Resources:
Knowing the available resources helps tailor the task to the technological
tools at hand, ensuring a seamless learning experience.
For web development and coding, the analysis of available resources primarily
involves the availability of devices such as computers/tablets and access to the
internet and necessary software for block or text-based code development,
depending on the languages used.
Concerning 3D modelling, it is essential to note that having a mouse will be very
useful, or in the case of tablet use, opting for software that can be easily used
even without a mouse, such as Tinkercad Codeblocks .
For 3D printing, it is necessary to be familiar with the type of printer, its
dimensions, available printing materials, and slicing software if a specific one is
required.
In educational robotics, everything depends on the brand and model of the
kits used, which may or may not have certain sensors and actuators. For
example, a colour recognition challenge is not feasible if the robotics kit lacks the
necessary sensor. Additionally, it's important to know if the programming
software for the robot is block-based.
For microcontrollers, detailed knowledge of all available devices (boards,
sensors, actuators) is even more crucial than for the technologies listed above.
Furthermore, if we want to program microcontrollers using block resources like
Tinkercad Circuits, we need to ensure that the microcontroller we use is part of
those available on the platform.
