The Kitronik Lesson in a Box Simple Robotics for micro:bit is a complete set of electronics and teaching resources to enable successful cross-curricular lessons with minimal teacher effort. The box covers 3 of the progress 8 curricular for the National Curriculum (Design & Technology, Computing, and Physics).
In developing this box we wanted it to be affordable, useful, and robust enough for teachers to use again and again. The resources cover not only the KS3/KS4 specifications but also personal development by encouraging pupils to view traditional STEM activities as having value across their curriculum.
All of the teaching resources are set out in a teacher, ‘ user-friendly' way, including technicians notes, lesson plans, and workbooks or worksheets. These are supplied as Microsoft Word, PowerPoint formats as well as PDF’s, which can be copied, modified and printed to suit your own teaching style.
There is also a quick start guide to the Lesson in a Box kit that gives an overview of the whole box including a summary of your new lessons, how to set up your kit, how to use the micro bit, code examples, and more.
The robots utilize the BBC micro:bit and our Klip Motor Driver board designed specifically for this type of activity! It requires no soldering and is all connected by crocodile clips.
The advantages of the micro:bit are that, while being easy to use, it is feature-packed and it can be coded with languages that suit every ability level.
