Description

EDU:BIT was 575% funded on KICKSTARTER on Oct 22, 2020.

This beginner-friendly micro:bit kit is specially designed to encourage kids to explore STEAM and learn coding.

Note This kit DOES NOT include micro:bit board. Full kit with micro:bit board is available here.

You can easily program EDU:BIT using open-sourced Microsoft MakeCode Editor. Just add EDU:BIT MakeCode Extension and you’re good to go. If you’re a beginner, you can start with the block programming mode; simply drag, drop and snap the coding blocks together. For more advanced users, you can easily switch into JavaScript or Python mode on MakeCode Editor for text-based programming.

New to coding? Don’t worry. This kit comes with a booklet covering 10 1 hands-on coding lessons, which have been creatively structured to introduce programming basics in a fun and engaging manner. Each chapter features a classic childhood game such as Rock Paper Scissors, Snakes and Ladders, Twister, and Simon Says. Follow the step-by-step guide to build the games and then have fun playing with your friends! *Game accessories are provided in this kit.

At the end of each chapter, there is a challenge which requires you to apply what you’ve learned to build a useful application for your classroom. Give it a try and if you’re stuck, we’re always here to help you. You can go to our online Resource Hub for sample codes and extra resources.

We’re passionate about eliminating the language barrier and let every kid have access to this guide book in their mother tongue. Thanks to volunteers all around the globe, EDU:BIT guide book in the following languages are now available for download (in PDF format):

If you’d also like to volunteer to translate this book into another language, we welcome you to get in touch with us. Email to cheryl@cytron.io.
