Coding with Kids - Hardware Engineering with Micro:bit
*The event has already taken place on this date: Fri, 07/24/2020
Let’s explore hardware engineering with the micro:bit platform! Campers will make different devices, such as a thermometer or compass. We will also learn how to make the devices communicate with each other wirelessly (just like in a smart home)!

Ages: 8-13 Length: 1 week Tools: Micro:bit board, Microsoft Block editor Prerequisites: None
CAMP DESCRIPTION: Students will use micro:bits to explore how a computer can be programmed by making several different types of electronic devices, such as a compass, a decibel reader, and a thermometer. Campers will also get an introduction to how their devices can be a part of the Internet of Things by enabling wireless communication between the devices (like how consumer devices communicate in a smart home).
