Description:
The project that students will embark on is allowing them to gather insight into the automotive industry especially when it comes to electrical circuits. The hope is that by bringing awareness that these simple circuits are the foundation of what they see sitting in the front seat as they take the wheel for the first time is comprised of small circuits like that found in the microprocessor of the micro:bit. Students will practice their problem solving, communication and technology skills as they learn how to program for the micro:bit using a breadboard starter kit and optional expansions such as the Smart Cutebot.
