​STAGE 1
Movement


Plug the Wireless USB Stick into one of your computer's USB ports. Then load the mBlock program (you should see the icon on your desktop).

Next, turn your mBot on. Can you find the power switch on the side?
​Now you need to actually connect your mBot to the computer. See the screenshot below.

NOTE: You will need to go through this step whenever you start using the mBot and whenever you turn it off and on again.

Once you have successfully connected the mBot to the computer, you are ready to start programming it.

Your main task for this stage (Stage 1) is to get the mBot to move around in response to different keys that you will be pushing on your keyboard.

Make your mBot do the following:
  1. Go forward when the up arrow is pressed
  2. Go backward when the down arrow is pressed
  3. Turn right when the right arrow is pressed
  4. Turn left when the left arrow is pressed

HINT: You will need to use these 4 blocks (and others too, of course).
