This week designers learned more about the sensors that are part of the #micro:bit. The Sensor Circus activity @codejoyedu.bsky.social was a big hit with lots of screaming and clever ways to find readings on our outside journey. icreateilearn.weebly.com/designing-6-...

You know quality instruction when you receive it. I am so thankful for Infosys Foundation USA pathfinders @codejoyedu.bsky.social Micro:bit in the Wild. Yesterday I used the gestures lesson in Video 5. Next week I will be using the Multiple Sensors in Video 11 #Micro:bit @microbit.org.

I am always learning better ways to introduce important parts of the #microbit with Infosys Pathfinders pathfinders.onwingspan.com/web/en/page/... and @codejoyedu.bsky.social Micro:bit in the Wild on demand course free on Pathfinders for educators.
