This is a lesson designed to help D1 students physically design and test maze solving algorithms and have a bit of fun at the same time.
I have done the activity several years running and tend to use it when students are in the middle of, or have just finished, mock exams and are feeling a bit shredded. I have also used it when we were visited by some particularly able year 8 students so that all students were able to access the ideas. In this instance the year 8 students started off as the mice and then became the programmers as they gained confidence.
I have written up this particular lesson as this class have been the best so far at entering into the spirit of the activity.
