Hi all
We are from school . we are planning to teach Arduino programing for grade 3 to 5 students using scratch software ( Drag and drop software like mBlock). We are planning to use Tablet with Android OS. We searched few apps in Google play like mBlock, but it does not support upload the program to Arduino uno from the TAB computer , please advice about apps that supports uploading feature from the TAB computer to Arduino Uno using on the go USB extension
Thanks in advance

I think you should change your plans. I don't think you can do this.
You could talk to an Arduino through a serial I/O block but not actually program it.
By teach Arduino programming, do you actually want to do a program in Scratch and then transfer the functioning of that Scratch program into an Arduino? If so that is doubly not on.
Thanks for the reply
This can be done using Arduino App that installed on my android phone and TAB but scratch app like mBlock does not allow uploading . Is it possible
Thanks
What can be done?
Do you mean Scratch or Scratch like applications, for examples mBlock?
My use of Scratch versions 1, 2 and 3 have been limited to using it and writing I/O applications on the Raspberry Pi.
Program Arduino Uno using Arduino App that installed on my Samsung TAB with android OS
I don't see why this is relevant to what you want to do. Sure using an Arduino app you can take code written in C/C++ compile it and download it to an Arduino. But this is not the same thing, by a very long way, as downloading code with Scratch.
You could use something like this
Or even this
But it isn't Scratch.
Can't we do this using windows OS that installed on TAB computer
Do what?
And what has this got to do with scratch?
Hey, great idea, @PA3040! I appreciate what you're doing. You can use mBlock online to do what you need.
