My Project

We need classroom materials!! Microbits are an amazing tool to teach how hardware and software work together, but in a manner that is engaging and fun for students. They have built in speakers, are able to send and receive via radio waves, and have sensors to detect motion, light, temperature, and magnetic fields.

Microbits would be the perfect addition to my robotics classes.

We would use them to further our understanding of programming throughout the school year as they can be used with students of all ages and programming capabilities. Microbits are an affordable way to bring more computer science into my classroom. Please help us add more relevant tech to our robotics class!
