Sphero indi - Student Kit

Rev up STEAM learning with the indi Student Kit— a complete learning solution designed to engage 1-3 students at a time. This kit includes indi— our entry-level robot designed to introduce early learners to the fundamentals of computational thinking, STEAM, and computer science principles. indi encourages open-ended, imaginative play-based learning with real-life scenarios as your students build custom mazes, solve puzzles, and drive. The Student Kit includes 15 Beginner’s Programming Challenge Cards, 20 durable silicone color tiles, and carrying case. And you don’t even need a screen to take the wheel. indi offers an unplugged experience with an on-board color sensor. Students can also kick their programming skills into high gear with more learning options in the free Sphero Edu Jr app.

The Student Kit is designed to engage small groups of early learners of all abilities as they embark on their coding and robotics journey. They navigate indi through any environment by creating different tracks and working together to solve puzzles and challenges. Send indi home with students for at-home learning or homeschool lessons to ignite a passion for problem solving and encourage creative expression.

Computational Thinking Made Fun

The indi learning robot offers unplugged and connected coding experiences that sharpen creative problem-solving and computational thinking skills. Kids learn the basics of programming with the color cards or level up with Sphero’s all new drag and drop blocks in the Sphero Edu Jr app. They control how indi reacts to the world through intuitive yet powerful programming blocks. This way they can reprogram how indi responds to different colors by choosing from a variety of movements, lights, and sounds that appear when navigating over the associated color tile. Students learn cause and effect, pattern recognition, the basics of block coding, and understand abstraction—all while having fun!
