Description
The Kitronik Inventors Kit for the BBC Micro:bit - Python version is an excellent way to get started with programming and hardware interaction with the BBC microbit. The kit contains everything you need to complete 10 experiments which include the use of LEDs, motors, photoresistors, and capacitors.
Also included is an easy-to-follow tutorial book that will guide you through everything you need to know about programming the BBC micro:bit. There is no need for any programming knowledge or experience as the tutorial book will guide you every step of the way.
The tutorial offers step-by-step guides to all 10 experiments.
- Experiments 1 - 6 with MakeCode Blocks
- Experiments 7 - 10 with MakeCode Python editor. The Python version tutorial booklet has been written especially for this version and will guide the user through the process of creating code and circuits. The original Inventor's kit experiments 7 - 10 used JavaScript.
The Kitronik Inventors Kit - Python version for the BBC microbit provides a fantastic way of learning how to construct and control electronic circuits. The BBC micro:bit has a selection of pins that are located on the bottom edge of its PCB. It is also easy to connect additional components to the BBC micro:bit by using the specially designed Edge Connector Board for the BBC micro:bit in conjunction with the breadboard.
This kit is available as a single pack or as a pack of 20 for the classroom.
