With hundreds of thousands of these kits out there in homes, schools and makerspaces, there is much untapped potential. Getting Started with mBots is for non-technical parents, kids and teachers who want to start with a robust robotics platform and then take it to the next level. The heart of the mBot, the mCore is a powerful Arduino based microcontroller that can do many things without soldering or breadboarding.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>Started his first Makers program in 2010 while teaching programming and math at Flint Hill School in Northern Virginia. Blogged about that process steadily at tieandjeans.com, and launched the first #makered chat on Twitter with Laura Blankenship. <br/><br/>In 2014, he moved to Korea to expand Chadwick Internationalâ (TM)s school-wide Making & Design program. On this journey he has presented at MakerFaires and with MakerEd.Org, NAIS, VSTE and ISTE, and been named a Senior FabLearn Fellow for Stanfordâ (TM)s Teaching & Learning Technologies Lab.</p><p>Rick Schertle is a master at the craft of teaching middle school in San Jose and a novice maker at home. His diverse interests include backyard chickens, adventure travel, veggie oil-fueled cars and geocaching - all made more fun with the enthusiastic support of his wife and the crazy antics of his young son and daughter.</p>
