What equipment do schools/groups need for our Moon Landing Coding Adventure?
We've designed this so schools/groups don't need lots of computers or equipment to take part. There's an unplugged activity which doesn't need any technology at all, and the online activity is optional.
​
For the online show: Schools/groups will need a computer with internet access and a screen so the children can watch the show together.
​
For the unplugged activity: Schools/groups will need a hall or communal space (indoors or outside), print-outs of the activity templates, whiteboards/paper and pens, and a way of setting out grids on the floor, (e.g. with chalk, tape or rubber mats).
​
For the online activity (optional): Schools/groups will need a computer or device with internet access for each child or pair of children.
