Everything needed to start, in one box: the Smart Science IoT Kit, a micro:bit V2 board, and seven self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy. This is where micro:bit projects stop being local and start producing data worth arguing about — sensors measure the room, and the readings go to the cloud. What's included: 1 x micro:bit Smart Science IoT Kit — IoT:bit Wi-Fi board, OLED screen, BME280, PIR sensor, light sensor, noise sensor, water level sensor, soil moisture sensor, sonar:bit, dust sensor and a 180° servo 1 x micro:bit GO pack (V2) — board, battery pack with 2 x AAA batteries and a USB cable 7 self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy, with written guides and video walkthroughs The seven lessons: Uploading sensor data to the ThingSpeak IoT platform Working with KidsIoT Air quality monitoring Environmental noise detection An environmental quality monitoring station Automatic irrigation detection A self-defence monitoring station You will need a computer, phone or tablet with internet access to load the Microsoft MakeCode editor, and a Wi-Fi connection for the cloud projects. Work through the lessons at your own pace, with no timetable and no expiry.

The Smart Science IoT Kit is where micro:bit projects stop being local and start producing data students can argue about. Sensors measure the room; the onboard Wi-Fi board sends those readings to a cloud service; students graph a week of results and work out what the numbers actually show. What's included: IoT:bit breakout board with an ESP12F Wi-Fi module, real-time clock and buzzer BME280 pressure, temperature and humidity sensor OLED display, PIR motion sensor, light sensor and noise sensor Soil moisture, water level and dust sensors, plus a sonar:bit ultrasonic sensor 180° servo, micro USB cable and connecting leads micro:bit board and lithium battery are not included — add a micro:bit V2 at checkout What students practise: Collecting real measurements over time instead of one-off readings Reading a graph they produced themselves and explaining the shape of it Connecting a device to a cloud service and understanding what "IoT" means concretely Block coding in MakeCode, with certified extension packages already available The kit works with ThingSpeak and IFTTT, so a class can set a threshold and have an email arrive when a reading crosses it. Sammat's Online Academy adds seven self-paced lessons for this kit, from cloud data logging to air quality monitoring and automatic irrigation — sold as an add-on, and included in the classroom pack.

A class set for teaching data properly. Ten Smart Science IoT Kits, ten micro:bit boards and Online Academy licences for thirty students, so a whole class can collect real environmental measurements, send them to the cloud, and argue about what the graphs actually show. What's included: 10 x micro:bit Smart Science IoT Kits 1 x micro:bit Club pack (class set of 10) — 10 micro:bit V2 boards, 10 battery packs, 10 USB cables and 20 AAA batteries 30 x student licences to the Sammat Online Academy, covering 7 self-paced lessons 1 x teacher licence to the Sammat Online Academy Each kit contains an IoT:bit Wi-Fi board, OLED screen, BME280, PIR sensor, light sensor, noise sensor, water level sensor, soil moisture sensor, sonar:bit, dust sensor and 180° servo What students practise: Collecting measurements over time and working with the data they produced Reading their own graphs and explaining the shape rather than the number Connecting a device to a cloud service and exporting data to a spreadsheet Block coding in Microsoft MakeCode, working in pairs Seven self-paced lessons in the Online Academy cover uploading to ThingSpeak, working with KidsIoT, air quality monitoring, environmental noise detection, a monitoring station and automatic irrigation. The batteries are included too, so nothing needs buying before the first lesson.
