Coding and robotics are now central to a future-ready education, but for many teachers, knowing where to begin is the hardest part. The good news? You don't need to be a programmer to teach these skills brilliantly. The Ozobot Evo is a desk-friendly, app-connected robot designed to make coding approachable for your students and easy for you to lead, no prior experience required.
Here are five features and benefits that make the Ozobot Evo a genuine classroom favourite.
1. Two ways to code for every skill level
Evo offers a beautifully gentle learning curve. Students start completely screen-free, using markers to draw colour codes that tell Evo to speed up, spin, change direction and more. When they're ready, they graduate to OzoBlockly, a drag-and-drop visual programming language powered by Google's Blockly with five skill levels from pre-reader to master. The benefit? One robot supports every student in your room and grows with them over time.
2. 150+ ready-made, curriculum-aligned lessons
Free access to Ozobot Classroom gives you teacher training plus hundreds of classroom-tested STEAM lessons, with up to 30 lessons per grade level. These cover maths and science as well as art, history and other subjects beyond STEM. The benefit is obvious to any busy teacher: far less planning, and a strong computer science foundation built right into the curriculum you already teach.
3. Screen-free entry that reduces screen time
With colour codes, students can grasp core coding concepts using nothing but paper and markers. This hands-on, screen-free start is perfect for younger learners and for any classroom looking to balance device use. The benefit is real engagement with the logic of coding before a screen ever enters the picture.
4. Packed with classroom-ready technology
Evo is small but mighty, featuring proximity sensors, optical sensors for detecting lines and colour codes, LED lights, a built-in speaker, Bluetooth connectivity and a strong polycarbonate shell that stands up to busy hands. The benefit is a durable, reliable tool that keeps working lesson after lesson, with firmware updates that add new features over time.
5. Australian-owned support you can rely on
The Ozobot Evo from Sammat Education comes with fast local delivery from Australian warehouses and first-class support from a team of former teachers. Purchase orders are welcome for schools and institutions. The benefit is a smooth, supported experience from the moment you order to the moment your students switch Evo on.
