Whale Fall Cycle
Program Ari to represent stages of a whale fall and the ecosystem that forms on the ocean floor. Students use color codes and sequencing to create and refine scientific models.
Coral Inhabitants
Become a marine scientist! Build an interactive coral reef to explore how ocean animals feed and shelter. Program Ari to mimic an ocean creature’s journey, track coral visits, and analyze your data to compare results.
Digital Zoologists: Researching with the LLM
Become a digital zoologist by using the LLM block to research animals and create a field report! Test what the LLM can accurately answer by asking a variety of questions with different output types to program Ozobot’s behavior based on the responses.
AI-Powered Population Maps
Use the LLM block to collect real-world population and land area data from 10 different countries! Students will calculate population density, rank countries from most to least crowded, and create an AI-powered population map.
Ocean Energy Food Chain
Bring the energy of ecosystems to life by programming Ari to simulate the flow of energy through a vibrant ocean food chain, from the sun to producers, consumers and decomposers. Use sequencing language to craft and present your model to your others!
What’s the Speed?
Students will follow the scientific method to determine the speed of their bot when it is programmed by different Color Codes.
Energy Road Trip
Students will use lines and Color Codes to program their bot to mimic a car to demonstrate potential energy and changes in kinetic energy.
Trait Match-Up
Students explore how certain traits are inherited in animals by programming their Ozobot to randomly choose a trait from a pair of parents. Then students put the chosen inherited traits from the parents together to draw an example of the offspring.
Patterns in Motion
Students look at different patterns to predict the motion of their bot. Students use their predictions to program their bot to show the patterns in motion. Then, students create real-world simulations of patterns in motion using lines and Color Codes
Life Cycles
Students will create interactive diagrams to show the life cycles of two different organisms. Students will compare and contrast the two different life cycles.
