PETS is an intuitive, physical experience-based programming learning kit. Students can program its movement by inserting tangible command blocks into the top of PETS. It doesn’t require any PC or tablet. Students can touch the command, move the object, and learn the basic of the programming. All you need to program PETS movement is the wooden blocks which fit to the top holes of PETS. PETS is suitable as the first step in learning to program and developing computational thinking, even before the visual programming.
