Micro:bit EMG (electromyography) and Prosthetics, Part 2 Programming the EMG
by Mandy Fierro
Part 2 (this lesson) is students learning how the body sends electrical signals through the muscles (if not covered Part 1’s research) by coding a Micro:bit to read the electrical currents (electromyography) and collecting data. Students will determine where to attach a prosthetic arm using the data generated.

Grades:
4th Grade, 5th Grade, 6th Grade, 7th Grade, 8th Grade
Students create a polling station, using student-made buttons, a circuit, and coding a Micro:Bit, to discover and report current student trends.
Grades:
3rd Grade, 4th Grade, 5th Grade, 6th Grade, 7th Grade, 8th Grade
On the second day students use more complex coding, the built in camera for taking pictures and experience FPV. It has 3 missions total in this lesson. This lesson also uses yaw to keep the camera

Coding and flying drones what a match! Students will have the chance to experiment with flying a drone in a simulator. The lesson includes 4 missions incorporating forces of flight acting on a drone.
