      Workshops for advanced users<\/h2><\/h2><\/div>

      This workshop is intended for girls and young women who have a basic knowledge of programming. Experience with a Lego robot is an advantage, but not necessary. Depending on the number of registrations, the course can be held in Scratch or Python.<\/p>\n<\/div>

      Prerequisites<\/h3><\/h3><\/div>
        \n
      • Basic knowledge of Scratch or Python. The contents of the beginners’ course are assumed to be known.<\/li>\n
      • Workshops for beginners and advanced students are always held on the same day. It is possible to attend both workshops in one day, but this is not recommended, especially for younger girls, as it is then a very long day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>

        Topics<\/h3><\/h3><\/div>
          \n
        • Navigation of the robot (line tracker or gyro sensor)<\/li>\n
        • Own blocks and variables<\/li>\n
        • Other topics according to the participants’ interests<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>
