Online course with virtual robots

The City of West Torrens decided that Thebarton Community Centre will close until further notice, along with other libraries and centres in Adelaide.

So, rather than moving the course to another location where some of the students would not be able to attend due to distance or parents’ concerns regarding COVID-19, we decided to move the classes to the online environment.

We keep the same schedule (days and time). We use Zoom for real-time communication. We continue to use the Carnegie Mellon University (CS2N) website for learning. But the exciting addition to our curriculum is the virtual robots. We tested the virtual robots and the students’ unanimous opinion was that they loved it. Please watch the video below for more information.

For the moment, the online course is in many ways better than the face-to-face meetings. First of all, it’s safer. Then it saves you driving and waiting time. And lastly, it gives other students who couldn’t attend the class due to distance a chance to join our Academy.
