There are a number of robots and online simulations available. Falkirk primary schools have Infant Video Toolkit software from 2Simple, Bee-Bot and Pro-Bot robots from TTS, Roamer robot from Valiant Technology, MSW Logo software and Roamerworld software. Each of these share the same basic principles of requiring the entry of logical statements in a set order to execute a sequence of commands to a floor robot or an on-screen simulation, with the end result being to follow a pre-determined path – from a simple straight line to ever-increasingly complex patterns and sequences. Each time consolidating and building on the learning which has gone on before.
