Course Overview
Who Is This Course For?
I designed this course for anyone who wants to learn how to build and program LEGO robots, from the very basics to advanced skills you can use just for fun, or for international robotics competitions, such as WRO, FLL, or Robocup Jr.
When developing the content for this course I imagined my student like this:
- 7 years old or older, and can read simple instructions.
- Completely new to robotics and programming, without previous experience in the topic.
- Curious about creating things that can move on their own, react to the environment, or solve real challenges.
This means this course is also for adults who want learn themselves, or want to help young learners:
- Parents/grandparents/tutors who want to support their children in building and programming LEGO robots, to make their screen time effective and valuable.
- Teachers who need a structured and reliable guide to introduce robotics in their classroom.
- Coaches who want to prepare their teams for robotics competitions with clear steps, good building habits, and solid programming strategies, without confusion, guesswork, or frustration.
You can use any LEGO robotics set that has motors, sensors, and a programmable brain (more details on that later). The examples will be easy to adapt, even if your kit looks a little different.
If you want to design robots that move, process data, and solve problems, this course will guide you step-by-step.
Throughout the course, I will explain case by case why I adopted specific solutions both for robot hardware (its structure and mechanisms) and for its software (the program to make it work), without spoon-fed content that’s how it is just because “I told you so”. No shortcuts, no missing steps, no overwhelming information — just clear, manageable lessons you can follow to gain confidence.
