micro:bit in the lab

In the “micro: bits in lab” activity, students will develop short codes to understand creatively how they can create their own products in the future.
Objectives:
O1. to learn the skills of using the micro-bit application
O2. to develop algorithmic thinking based on the applications presented
O3. to use the software to creatively and intuitively program various applications
Stages:
1. presenting the discussion topic and the prepared materials
2. presenting the micro-bit application and the tools it contains
3. developing an application that will be published at the web address (https://padlet.com/rafira1982/microbit)
4. completing the activity feedback
Challenges:
– write code in Micro:bit to display different words (their names or others)
– use blocks to execute certain instructions when button A, button B or button A + B are pressed
Feedback from participants:
Luca: ”Micro:bit is an interesting application that develops your creativity and algorithmic thinking.”
Stefan: ”I liked programming with Micro:bit.”
Andrei: ”It is an interactive and useful application when you begin to deepen it.”
Ioana: ”I did not know there was such an application. The activity was interesting and I hope we will have other activities of this kind.”
