Inventor's Kit for the BBC micro:bit Handheld Computer
Grades 2-12.
Inventor's Kit is a great way to get students interested in STEM/STEAM by introducing them to the world of physical computing through programming and hardware interaction with the BBC micro:bit handheld computer. Students will learn how to construct and control electronic circuits. The easy-to-follow tutorial book guides students through everything they'll need to know about programming the BBC micro:bit, making the kit perfect for those who have no experience. The 12 experiements (10 in the guide and 2 online) showcase how code and electronics can combine to create real-world, everyday practical solutions to situations and problems. No soldering is required, allowing beginners to program and create circuits in no time. Harnessing the power of the elements, using sensory input to make things happen, and using variable input amounts to effect a gradual change are just some of the things students will learn as they progress through the experiments. Connecting the included edge connector board to the BBC micro:bit will provide 21 accessible pins to connect additional components to the BBC micro:bit. NOTE: BBC micro:bit is not included (SB53386 for BBC micro:bit).
