Description

A complete micro:bit classroom pack for a class of thirty. Ten Smart City Kits, ten micro:bit boards and a full set of Online Academy licences arrive together, so a teacher can run a unit on urban technology without sourcing anything else or writing the lessons.

What's included:

  • 10 x micro:bit Smart City 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
  • 1 x teacher licence to the Sammat Online Academy
  • Each kit contains an IoT:bit board, OLED screen, red, yellow and green LEDs, DHT11 sensor, water level sensor, soil moisture sensor, sonar:bit, 180° servo, USB cable and manual

What students practise:

  • Turning a civic problem — flooding, traffic, waste, water use — into something code can address
  • Using sensor thresholds to trigger an automatic response
  • Block coding in Microsoft MakeCode, working in pairs
  • Presenting a design and explaining why it works the way it does

Twelve project tutorials in the Online Academy cover subway flood prevention, automatic irrigation, a smart bin, push-button crossings, library noise monitoring and more. The batteries are included too, so nothing needs buying before the first lesson.
