This camp will teach students how to code to hardware using a Microbit microprocessor, work together as a team, and present their final project at the end of the camp to their parents. This camp will not only teach students how to code, but it will also help students learn how to communicate with their teammates as well as presentation skills.
The teams will choose and pick a project to code to the board. This could be a game (tic tac toe, guess the number, etc), temperature sensor, LED display pattern, etc.
