Students explore the basic needs of animals as they design a code for a programmable mouse to demonstrate their knowledge of everything a mouse needs to survive. Following code, writing code, and debugging code, students prepare for essential skills of the 21st century. Students work through the Engineering Design Process – to learn the value of rethinking and support multiple solutions.
