Fischertechnik Calliope learning package

Programming in Elementary School:

Fischertechnik Calliope introduces students from the third grade onwards to the principles of programming in an easy-to-understand manner. The kit includes Fischertechnik components for building three stationary models. With the help of sensors and actuators, students can first construct easily understandable models such as hand dryers, traffic lights, and barriers according to the building instructions, and then control them using the Calliope Board. Fischertechnik Calliope can be used in both guided and independent lessons, providing young students with an accessible entry point into the world of programming. The accompanying didactic guidebook with teacher and lesson materials offers a step-by-step guide for commissioning and various tasks. The teaching materials are available for free download on the eLearning portal.
