Clever sprites: how do computer characters find their way around
Designed for STEM Ambassadors to present, in this activity students experiment with a programme containing a path-finding algorithm. They look at the use of messaging in the programme and record how the length of time an algorithm takes to run is affected by changing the starting conditions.
This collection of resources has been put together to support teachers and teams taking part in Climate Detectives. The resources can be used to inspire ideas, deepen understanding, or to fuel further learning after taking part in the challenge.
