Ann Holt’s ART 100 class collaborated with Media Commons on the “Getting Lost: Mapping Surroundings” first year seminar experience. Staff guided students through a Sphero Bolt robotics session, where they learned block coding to program and control their robots. Once they mastered the basics, the students created a large map using recycled paper spread across the floor in the C-PAD Teaching Lab. Dipped in different colors of ink, the robots mapped out pathways to represent the routes the students navigate daily in a hands-on exploration of their surroundings.
