The Pedro STEM Program introduces students to robotics in a simple, fun, and hands-on way through a series of 10 practical lessons.
Throughout the programme, students explore a range of topics, including design, assembly, programming, and communication protocols. Each lesson focuses on a specific topic and allows students to learn by experimenting directly with their Pedro robot.
Thanks to this educational resource, the concepts introduced become easier to understand, explore, and put into practice. At the end of each lesson, students unlock a new badge to celebrate the skills they have acquired. Each badge can be added to their Pedro Passport, allowing them to track their progress throughout the program.
At the end of the program, students can earn the official Pedro Expert certification, recognising the skills and knowledge they have gained.
The STEM lessons are free and open source. Teachers can download them, adapt and contribute improvements to the project.
