Middle School
Physical Computing
13-14 years old
In this engaging educational program, students explore the world of science through the lens of STEM and hands-on experimentation. They delve into the fundamentals of Physical Computing by building interactive projects that respond to real-world stimuli and perform meaningful actions. Using the micro:bit microcontroller as their foundation, students learn to construct robotic systems and automation solutions by integrating breadboards, sensors, and actuators. As they progress, they are introduced to the basics of Python programming, gradually advancing to more complex tasks such as controlling a smart car using Python code. This comprehensive, project-based approach not only enhances their technical skills but also nurtures creativity, logical thinking, and problem-solving abilities, preparing them for future learning in robotics, programming, and engineering.
