About
Short, hands-on computer science courses from the ETH teaching center for informatics, aimed at primary-age kids with a strong aptitude for it. Groups program micro:bit boards and Maqueen robots in MakeCode or Python, test their code and debug it together, and explain their solutions to each other. Levels run from first steps to an advanced robotics group that expects confident Python.
