Kids learn through Mojo the following things;

• Programming
• Electronics
• 3d printing
• Engineering
• The idea behind, and the power of open source

Programming

Mojo has an mBlock extension with which he is easilly programmed using coding blocks. From a simple driving a circle or a square to advanced programs making Mojo interact with all kinds of sensor input and al kinds of mechanical, audible or other output.

3d printing, electronics en engineering

Mojo's bracket is his greatest power. In a one hour lesson children are able to learn how to edit the standard bracket into something with which Mojo can execute a certain task. For example a pen holder or a ball pusher, so that Mojo can draw or play soccer. From there they can progress into all kinds of mechanical and/or electrical inventions they can design and program.

Open source

Aside from the fact that everything about Mojo is open source, Tinkercad is a medium on which children can post their inventions and where they can find inventions made by others for them to make or enhance. This introduced them into the power of Open Source in an extremilly fun way.
