At our school, I am responsible for giving our students as broad of a STEM experience as I can. With these Bit Boards, I will be able to give my students hands-on technology and engineering experiences. The micro bits allow my students to be exposed to an approachable physical computing device that can also program robots that are designed by the students. It will allow students to see their code come to life as opposed to just typing their code into a computer and not seeing any tangible results from their code.
