Physical Computing

Physical computing devices are hands-on devices that provide students with the opportunity to practice computer science concepts by programming devices using directional and control commands in the early grades and putting their block-based and text-based code into action in the upper grades. The use of physical computing devices allows students to use the skills developed through learning to code; problem-solving, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration, along with their sharpened math and science skills in a hands-on environment. These devices are available for checkout in our media catalog.

Items are available for a 10-day checkout period. To reserve any of these resources, contact Media Services at reservations@centralriversaea.org, use the chat at the bottom of the page, or call 641-844-2410 or 800-735-1539.
