Students explore robotics by programming a robot to move objects using grippers, navigating coordinates, and adjusting distances. They also practice rotation control and angle measurement. The scenario extends to an ocean cleanup theme, simulating plastic collection to highlight environmental issues, fostering coding skills and ecological awareness in small groups.
