The micro:bit Smart City Project is designed to help your students get started with exploring the world of electronics with a focus on automation and the Internet of Things (IOT). Sammat Education would like to invite Schools to participate in a collaborative Regional STEM project that involves students and teachers developing SMART CITIES of the future all powered by micro:bit technology. The micro:bit Smart Home Kit is designed to help you get started with exploring the world of electronics with a focus on automation. Simply speaking a “Smart Home” is a home equipped with the lighting, heating, cooling, visual, sound appliances, miscellaneous electronic devices that can be controlled remotely (and automated) by a smartphone or a computer. Our Goal Each team designs and creates a “Smart City” and presents their project on the Expo Day in Term 4. How it works Schools can register teams of students into the project. Our suggestion would be approx 10 students per team, however each kit can cater for 30 students. Schools can register multiple teams and each school needs to allocate a teacher in charge of the project or team. Each team receives a micro:bit Smart City Project Kits (10 Individual kits that include micro:bits). Teachers participate in a Professional Learning day that introduces the kits and will have access to online lessons and resources to help with the project. Schools will participate in LIVE online lessons throughout the year. View the slideshow above for more information on the timeline, projects and equipment.

An active stylus with a 1.9mm fine tip, rechargeable and pressure-free — it draws a consistent line regardless of how hard a student presses. For handwriting and sketching where a rubber-tipped passive stylus feels vague, this is the step up. What it does: Fine 1.9mm active tip Rechargeable, no batteries to replace Works across iPad, Android and Windows touchscreens Black or silver Where it fits: senior art and design, note-taking on tablets, and annotation work where precision matters. Replacement nibs and chargers are available separately — worth stocking both if you're issuing a class set. Not an Apple Pencil. No pressure sensitivity or palm rejection, which the Pencil has and this doesn't. It works across every platform, though, and costs a third as much. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.

The simplest stylus Adonit make — a rubber-tipped passive stylus that works on any touchscreen with no battery, no pairing and no charging. At this price it's the one to buy in quantity. What it does: Rubber tip, works on any capacitive touchscreen No battery or pairing Aluminium body with a clip Black or silver Where it fits: early years and primary classrooms, where the job is pointing, drawing and tapping rather than fine handwriting. Sturdy enough for shared use and cheap enough to replace. Want more precision? The Mini 4 and Pro 4 use a clear disc tip you can see through, and the Dash 4 has a fine active tip. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.

A compact precision stylus with a clear disc tip — you see through the disc to exactly where the line will land, which is the difference between guessing and drawing accurately. What it does: Clear precision disc tip No battery or pairing required Compact body with a clip Blue or grey Where it fits: maths working, diagrams, annotation and drawing tasks where a rubber tip is too blunt. The disc tip is a replaceable part — spares are available. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.

Magnetic active styluses that clip to the side of a tablet the way an Apple Pencil does — which is the single biggest factor in whether a stylus is still with the device at the end of term. Choose your platform: Neo — for iPad. Magnetically attaches to the side of compatible models. Neo Ink — for Windows devices including Surface, using Microsoft Pen Protocol. Why magnetic attachment matters in a school. A stylus in a pencil case gets lost; a stylus stuck to the tablet comes back with the tablet. If you're issuing styluses with a class set, this is the feature that determines how many you're replacing next year. Check compatibility before ordering — Neo works with iPad models that support side attachment, and Neo Ink needs a Windows device with pen support. Purchase orders accepted on school accounts.

Two precision styluses that need no battery, no pairing and no charging — which for a shared class set is the whole argument. Nothing to go flat, nothing to configure, works the moment a student picks it up. Choose your model: SE 2 — the newer design, in black or white Pro 4 — the precision disc model, in black or silver Where these fit: annotation, maths working, diagrams and drawing on any touchscreen. Both work across iPad, Android and Windows, so a mixed fleet doesn't need two products. Passive or active? Passive styluses like these are cheaper, need no charging and never stop working mid-lesson. Active styluses such as the Dash 4 and Neo give a finer line and a more natural feel, at roughly twice the price and with a battery to keep charged. For a class set, passive usually wins.
