GBC Workshop – Learn while building

Last Saturday we had the joy of organising a GBC Workshop here in the Netherlands together with the HetMartinBuber College. Many builders took a turn and together we were able to complete modules from the GBC 21 Mine Factory. Focussing on all the mechanical aspects which bring this machine alive. It was great to see the many builders collaborating together and getting stuff done!

 

 

 

Spirograph Workshop

Last year we provided a very cool workshop for the HetMartinBuber college in the Netherlands. Students used programming, mechanical and artistic skills to create beautiful patterns. All was possible by using our Smart Spirograph Spinner and Pybricks for coding.

Workshop for our minister of education Mariëlle Paul

Last week, during our Record Blaster workshop, we had the honor of meeting Mariëlle Paul, our minister of education here in the Netherlands. We explained our Steam education approach and how our Record Blaster (Made from LEGO) was used as a tool to educate students about physics, math, programming and more. The delegation was very interested and could see for themselves how this was put into action during a workshop we provided for the HetMartinBuber college.

Aftermovie of our GBC Workshop

As mentioned in a previous post, we provided on 28-10-2023 our GBC Workshop at the HetMartinBuber college in the Netherlands. Now watch the aftermovie to get an even better impression of this amazing day! Also see our Spirograph Spinner at timestamp 0:54. Participants could program the machine to draw unique art!

 

 

Programmable Turntable Workshops with LEGO

Yesterday we had the pleasure of providing our Record Blaster LEGO workshop for a group of 12 year old students at the Het Martin Buber college here in the Netherlands. They learned about the turntable concepts/speeds/physics and by using Pybricks software they could even program the turntable themselves in Python. Learning about the encoders from a motor to gain a steady speed and more. An amazing day!

GBC Workshops at HetMartinBuber College

Last Saturday we had the tremendous joy of providing one of our workshops at the HetMartinBuber college here in the Netherlands. 10-12 year old students got their hands on our GBC 44 Scoop Loupe and GBC 21 Mine Factory and worked together to bring the machines alive. There even was a smart Spirograph which could be programmed and could draw amazing art pieces.
