Meeting Microbits

Help me give my students access to technology and coding with compatible technology.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Terry's classroom raised $722

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students need micro:bits and dongles to connect to their iPads in order to fully participate in hands-on coding and STEM activities. The micro:bits provide an engaging, interactive platform for learning programming, electronics, and problem-solving skills. However, because iPads lack standard USB ports, dongles are essential to establish a reliable connection between the iPads and micro:bits. Without these tools, students miss out on key opportunities to test their code in real-time, interact with physical computing devices, and deepen their understanding of how software and hardware work together. This technology is critical for creating an inclusive, modern, and effective learning environment.
