“I’m using the micro:bit with Key Stage 2 age children for model railway applications, and there’s so much we can do with it. We’re only beginning to see the opportunities to apply this tiny computer to solve problems.”
“Amazing piece of kit for the money - easy to use online coding software enables quick programming to perform a wide range of tasks, including control of motors and servos, and using sensors. Brilliant!”
“It may be small, but it is mighty! An amazingly capable little machine that is easy to programme either via computer or using the mobile phone app with MakeCode. Just scratching the surface after a couple of weeks of exploring!”
“Great bit of kit to get the children into computers and coding! Cheap, packed with sensors and with an easy-to-use block coding interface (very much like scratch), it hits the spot for anyone wanting to get into coding or electronics.”
“Straightforward , relatively simple device with lots of sensors and lots of opportunities means my (autistic( son loves it.. Also the microbit approach of providing three languages (scratch like, python and javascript) is awesome.”
