Hey all, I was wondering if there was an easier way of checking my students programing files (.vrblocks) from the online coding site. Right now I have to download each file manually, and then open from my device in VEXcode VR online, and then watch the playground simulate their code. Is or will t…

I would second the idea of having them turn in a screencast to flip grid. This has been a life saver for me this year. Super easy to set up and can view their code and the results. Set up the expectations on what you want to see in their screen recording and it will be great. I have made them put …

Does your school use Google Classroom or Canvas learning platform? If so, make it an assignment and the student will upload to that platform. I do not see the value of desktop solutions, or having accounts for kids by VEX, that complexity alone will diminish the adoption we see. Keep it simple fo…

You could have them screen record their code and playground with Flipgrid. That’s actually a good idea, and one I hadn’t thought of before. I think I might take my own advice, haha. I have been having my students fill out Google Docs that I make for each lesson that have questions about their proce…

google classroom. That is what I have been doing, it just gets a little time consuming manually downloading and uploading their code to check. Just was seeing what others have been doing to increase my workflow. Thanks.

Thanks for your input. If you don’t mind sharing with me that would be excellent! I will attempt to DM you.

I’ve edited the above post since it contained a personal email address. @Michael_Sikora : To send a DM, just click on the username of the person you want to message, and then the blue “Message” button from the pop-up.

I also have my students submit screenshots. I tell them to run the program, then take a screenshot of the playground and the most important code. Sometimes, it takes 2 or 3, but usually only one. This eliminates the download and upload that others discusses, plus having to watch the robot run the en…

Hey all and thanks for all the feedback. I have been using the screen capture and students have been submitting video captures of their code and execution of code. This has helped me to streamline my grading. I have so many students and teach 3 other different tech classes that I need to prepar…
