My Project

I would like to provide my coding and STEM career classes some additional micro:bit accessories for them to use while doing physical computing activities. I would love to get them excited about coding through game design. My school is developing a STEM program and I am one of the teachers at the forefront of making this happen along with incorporating the design thinking process. Having more of this equipment on our campus will allow our science and math teachers to use this equipment to gather data and incorporate code into their disciplines. Our students will also use these code games and learn to code using python micro:bits. They will have fun while learning to code.
