RoboBlockly

AP CS Principles

The following activities are designed to enable the use of robotics and the RoboBlockly site with the AP Computer Science Principles course developed by Code.org. They may also be easily integrated into other CS Principles courses. The last section below includes suggested activities that can be used as resources for the required computational artifact.
