Robot Virtual Worlds (RVW), developed by Robomatter, is a high-end virtual environment that enables students to learn programming concepts with or without a physical robot.
RVW uses a virtual VEX EDR or VEX IQ robot with motors and sensors in 3D environments which can be programmed with ROBOTC, the same language as physical robots. The RVW environment is perfect for classroom, homework, and competition!

The Introduction to Programming VEX IQ includes videos, animations, and step-by-step lessons designed to help beginners learn behavior-based programming using the VEX IQ hardware and ROBOTC Graphical for VEX Robotics. The tutorials are designed to encourage independent learning and problem solving in pursuit of a goal. All are self-contained, require a minimum of instructor supervision, and include many built-in opportunities to self-assess progress. Prior robotics experience not required or assumed!
- Individual resources access for each student or group – With individual access to the video resources, students can move at the instructional pace that’s right for them.
- Unlimited Access to Expedition Atlantis – Get unlimited access to our classroom-tested robot math game that motivates students to learn about math and proportional reasoning.
- Follow along using your physical VEX IQ robot or a simulated VEX IQ robot in the Challenge Pack Robot Virtual World (Robot Virtual Worlds for VEX license required).

The STEM CAD Workbook Bundle with SnapCAD is an excellent classroom resource that promotes theory, challenges, and activities in a 187-page printable feature-rich resource. The STEM CAD Workbook takes advantage of robotics as a way to teach math and engineering concepts and provides hours of in-class activity for students. It works as a stand-alone workbook or can be used to complement the Introduction to Programming VEX IQ video trainer.
The STEM CAD Workbook is a great resource for teachers who want to use SnapCAD in their classrooms to introduce:
- Technical Drawing
- Engineering Process
- Project Management
- Sketching
- Dimensioning and Measurement
- Mechanics
STEM CAD Workbook Bundle also includes:
- Activities to build simple machines and more with VEX IQ and SnapCAD
- SnapCAD Instructional Videos

10-week curriculum packages using either ROBOTC or Modkit for VEX to implement a VEX IQ Robotics kit in your class. Containing over 20 chapters that follow a planetary exploration storyline, you will introduce students to the basics of the VEX IQ kit while gradually incorporating sensors and useful programming concepts.
All challenges follow a similar structure with an overview project, equipment needed and Teachers' notes. Example programs, as well as tips and tricks, are included to assist the teacher. Student worksheets can also be photocopied or downloaded from the website. Full build instructions required to construct the miniVEX Base design and all necessary attachments are also included.
In addition to specific Robot challenges, the book also offers activities based around Robots in Society, Flowcharting and Multimedia Presentations.
