Micro:bit와 함께하는 여름 로봇 캠프

This summer camp is an introduction to the micro:bit, an amazing, low-cost, credit-card-sized computer that can be used in a large variety of robotics projects. But for this class, you only need a $20 microbit kit.

TLDR: You need to buy a Version 2 micro:bit for this class. In the next class in this multi-class series, you'll need to buy a robotics kit from Yahboom.

This class is the first of a series of classes that will use the micro:bit with the "Yahboom world of module programmable sensor kit"
http://www.yahboom.net/study/WOM-Sensor-Kit-microbit . Have you ever spent a ton of money on a robot kit and then found out it really doesn't offer much? This class series avoids this in multiple ways. First, you only need to start with a micro:bit, not the whole robotics kit. This way your learner can try out the code editor, see what the micro:bit can do on its own. And then you can choose to buy the whole kit (needed for the rest of this class series). Second - I have tried at least two dozen coding robots and kits, and I can promise you that this is a great kit! It's both reasonably priced and well designed!

You may know me on OutSchool as a Scratch teacher, but I actually got my start teaching with the micro:bit over 5 years ago - before you could even buy them in the US! (I would have them shipped to me from the U.K.). I had chosen not to teach micro:bit on OutSchool because I had not found a robotics kit that I felt would work well remotely. 

Part 2 of this series of classes will require the purchase of a Yahboom kit but this class gives your learner an opportunity to try the microbit, the makecode editor, and get an idea of the functionality before buying the robotics kit. (Nothing worse than buying a robotics kit and having it gather dust in a closet!)

In this 4 day camp, we are going to learn to code on the micro:bit using Microsoft's MakeCode editor. The editor is free and on the web. 
Day 1 - Intro to the micro:bit, MakeCode, and writing programs. Write a program using buttons, accelerometer, and display.
Day 2 - Programming with speaker and microphone.
Day 3 - Make a scorekeeper.
Day 4 - Program an alarm to protect something in your room.

YOU NEED TO BUY A VERSION 2 MICRO:BIT!!!! And a micro USB cable!!!! (see below for more info!)
