Five Programming Levels and beyond!
Unplugged
Control Marty without an app!
Marty contains a colour sensor, which allows it to be programmed by laying coloured tiles. Red is stop, green is go, blue to slide left and purple to slide right!
Marty Controller
Control Marty!
As well as a joystick control, actions such as turning, jumping, waving and kicking are available, all in variable speeds. The sequencer allows children to produce their first ever code!
MartyBlocks Jr
Introduction to block based coding!
Built from Scratch Jr, this allows children to continue their progress by building coding projects using jigsaw-like blocks to either control a virtual Marty or connect to your friendly Marty!
Marty Blocks
Scratch-based coding app!
Use a more advanced Scratch coding language to continue learning about building programmes. There is a huge variety of actions available, from simple movement to translation, emotions and all the way to machine learning with Teachable Machine!
Python
Text-based next step!
You don't need any extra hardware to program Marty with Python, and it's quite easy to get started! You can even control multiple Martys from one Python script, great for making synchronised dances or football teams!
Learn and Teach with Marty
Robotical have created a wide-ranging library of educational resources to make sure that teachers and pupils get the most out of Marty.
Premade lesson plans, activities, teacher slides, teacher guides, worksheets and schemes of work will allow you to let Marty into your classroom smoothly and with zero disruption!
Resources are mapped to the English National Curriculum, and years within this, as well as many other curricula such as the Curriculum of Excellence in Scotland.
The learning portal, put together by Robotical, filters resources by topic, education standards, years of education, coding environments and difficulty level.
