Featured Resource: Desiging a Digital Pet
Bring creativity, coding, and compassion into your classroom with our latest featured resource — Designing a Digital Pet.
In this two-lesson unit, students explore how robotics can support human wellbeing by designing and building their own interactive RoboPet using a micro:bit, servo motor, and digital design tools.
From coding LED expressions to constructing circuits that power movement, learners will develop key computing and engineering skills while reflecting on the ethical use of technology.
Physical Computing Competition
This summer, ignite your students' curiosity and creativity with our Physical Computing Competition. Open to pupils aged 7-14, this exciting challenge invites learners to use micro:bits to tackle environmental problems, from local issues to global challenges. Whether coding or creating diagrams, students will explore innovative solutions and showcase their talents.
Join us in fostering a love for physical computing and problem-solving. Visit our competition page for all the details and resources to get started. Let's inspire the next generation of tech-savvy problem solvers!
