SESSION DESCRIPTION
You have these Micro:bits in your school or classroom, but how are you using them. This session will take you beyond the basics and stretch you to understand how you can really engage your students with the Micro:bit, computing and developing physical models. Learn how to use an infrared sensor, servo motors, moisture sensors, external speakers, and more. This puts learners at the center and will allow them to take control over what they will do with the Micro:bit.
