The micro:bits will be students' first access to physical computing provided by our school. They will get to explore hands on projects and watch their code come to life. This will help increase engagement and retention in computer science by providing students with multiple means of access to content and purpose to the projects they work on. This will lay the foundation so that our school can grow its computer science program and provide students with a better understanding of software engineering. Students will be given access to hands on projects and see how their skills can be applied in the real world. The books will provide students with additional engagement in how the concepts they are learning are applicable in the real world. Students will see how widely used mathematical algorithms are and the potential problems that arise from their use. They will learn about the ethics of computing and leave school ready to use their computer science knowledge for good.
