Limited, low or no vision: This task can be modified those with colour-blindness or limited, low, or no vision. You can use physical blocks, buildings, figures, or models in place of drawings. Next, to allow the student to feel the Ozobot move along the paper, you can tape a feather, fake hair, or a cardboard shape to the top of the bot; something that the student can touch that will not affect the movement of the robot. See the lesson Ozobot and Colour Codes for additional suggestions. |
Students critique their performance based on efficiency and entertainment value.
Students demonstrate to small groups during the development stage offering positive criticism regarding possible improvements.
