Join "Mars Rover Race" on Robociti to explore basic information about Mars and the Mars Rovers sent to explore the conditions on the Red Planet. Students will learn how to use Scratch and its interface to design their own Mars Rover by using different Sprites, as well as how to make them move on a Mars-related background they can customize. Then, they get introduced about the methods to design a rover race, with the rovers avoiding obstacles, while scoring points for collecting different resources. Finally, students are challenged to add more rules and details to the race to customize it even further, letting their creativity explore different possibilities.
