Karel - Challenge 3 in Google Classroom

Karel - Challenge 3

Karel needs to navigate a walkway (bricks, balls, holes ...) and you are going to help them by typing commands into the attached Doc as though you are on the phone with Karel or giving directions to help them get somewhere else (i.e. Karel is on your porch and you are giving them directions to a friend's house).

After you have the instructions written, look at the Test #2 image to see if your directions will still work in that scenario.

Make sure you click submit on the Doc when you are done!

"Trolley Problem" in Google Classroom

"Trolley Problem"

The classic trolley problem goes like this: You see a runaway trolley speeding down the tracks, about to hit and kill five people. You have access to a lever that could switch the trolley to a different track, where a different person would meet an untimely demise. Should you pull the lever and end one life to spare five?

NOTE:
The lives/people in these scenarios are strangers.

When making your decisions, remember - You are NOT among the people in this scenario. The people you know personally are NOT among the people in this scenario.

Follow the link to the Moral Machine and respond to the scenarios presented.
(Choose your preferred language and click "start judging")

When you are done, click "Link" and submit the link.
