Micro:bit Prototyping Academy
by Patricia Morgan
The Micro:bit prototyping academy is designed to teach students the basic commands and features in order to innovate their own device. They will learn the input commands, variables and conditional selections along with testing and improving their program in the emulator. The lesson concludes with a Micro:bit Tech Challenge in which students are tasked to create a prototype that addresses a problem.
