Description
Everything needed to start, in one box: the micro:bit Smart Health Kit, a micro:bit V2 board, and nine self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy. Projects about the body and the habits around it — a tap that runs without being touched, a reminder to sit up straight, a UV meter for deciding whether to put a hat on.
What's included:
- 1 x micro:bit Smart Health Kit
- 1 x micro:bit GO pack (V2) — board, battery pack with 2 x AAA batteries and a USB cable
- 9 self-paced lessons in the Sammat Online Academy, with build steps, code and video walkthroughs
- Kit contains a sensor:bit board, analog UV sensor, PIR motion sensor, MQ3 alcohol sensor brick, a servo and connecting leads, with ten sensor modules in total
The lessons cover:
- Touch-free hand washing and UV detection
- A step counter and a drinking reminder
- A classroom noise monitor and a posture reminder
- Setting a sensible threshold and testing whether it actually works
You will need a computer, phone or tablet with internet access to load the Microsoft MakeCode editor. Written in Australia for Australian classrooms and homes, and worked through at your own pace — there is no timetable and no expiry on a lesson you have not finished.
