Students often use short cables for the ultrasonic sensor. This end with either breaking the cable or with their program malfunctioning. Make sure that they use the largest possible cable.
If the EV3 medium motor is programed for more degrees that what is allowed by the construction, the program will stall. If you decide you can use that occasion to show the students how they can overcome that issue by programming the medium motor to run for seconds instead of rotations.

Courses and lessons with this Tutorial
This Tutorial is used in the following courses and lessons
Level B1. "Spy gadgets". Robotics with LEGO
The third level of the Robotics with LEGO curriculum for students in second, third or fourth grades.
In these lessons, we stress on more complex and challenging robots. The concept of Condition is introduced. Students learn about physics concepts of inertia and center of mass. Robots with two sensors are built and students program both of them. Programming becomes more complex as robots now can make complex decisions. "Spy"-robots sneakily follow their targets, trying to be undetected.
