In this exciting class, students will gain significant creative coding experience using block programming and a Micro:Bit computer. Students will strengthen their problem solving skills as they engage in design thinking and consider user experience. They will also gain confidence in presenting and become more comfortable with the concepts of failure and perseverance, learning that if they continue to work through issues that arise, success will follow. Our hope is that this byte-sized challenge will inspire students to continue exploring technology for the rest of their lives.
