The Invent to Learn Guide to the micro:bitcombines coding, craft, and creativity to teach physical computing, engineering, computer science, and electronics to young people ages 8-16.
Millions of the miraculous low-cost microcontroller development board, the BBC micro:bit, are in use across the globe. This new book takes a comprehensive approach to teaching children to make and code exciting interactive projects using the micro:bit as its “brain board.” This book expands the range of what often happens in classrooms.
The Invent to Learn Guide to the micro:bitinvites learners to create dozens of simple-to-complex, open-ended, hands-on projects using one or more micro:bits, upcycled junk, and craft supplies. Microsoft’s MakeCode block-based programming environment is used to bring your interactive inventions to life. Powerful computer science skills are developed by programming projects that appeal to girls and boys. The code used in each project is fully explained and young inventors are challenged to build upon their emerging computational fluency in increasingly complex projects.
The Invent to Learn Guide to the micro:bitalso features aPrefaceby Jacqueline Russell, Product Manager, Microsoft MakeCode, and an Afterword by Gary Stager,Why This Book Matters.
