Students can apply new knowledge via project-based learning to build, modify, edit, and analyze code to solve problems. They create their own projects and code custom robots in virtual environments. The workspace is where students build programs using Imagine Robotify Blockly blocks, dragging blocks from the drawers into the workspace and positioning blocks together to make different kinds of programs. You can click and drag the workspace to move it, allowing you to create programs and modules that are separate from each other.
