Check out this wonderful video about the research and development of “Big KIBO.” This was a project by Miki Vizner at Tufts’ DevTech Research Group. Miki was studying the impact of scale on kids’ engagement with robotics; do kids learn or play differently with a big robot than a small one?
While exploring Africa, preschoolers researched the art and culture of the Ndebele people and coded a dance sequence using KIBO and played drums to accompany the dance.
In celebration of Tu B’Shevat, the Jewish New Year of Trees, the first and second graders at New England Jewish Academy (NEJA), created 4 trees to represent the four seasons and then programmed KIBO to work with the trees to help them.
See a couple of examples of how Celestino Magalhães uses KIBO with his young learners to explore critical problem solving and learning through practical experiences.
