STEM Programming Skills

USER-FRIENDLY CODING ENVIRONMENT

TinkRworks projects include access to TinkRcode, our drag-and-drop, block-based programming environment.

With TinkRcode, students develop algorithms and create code that is uploaded wirelessly to projects. They program various components (including lights, speakers, motors and more) bringing their projects to life in their own unique way.

No prior coding experience is required, for both facilitators and students.

Technology Requirements: Mac, PC, Tablets (e.g. iPad or Surface), or Chromebook
