In this introductory, hands-on workshop you will learn how to program an inexpensive, battery-powered, pocket-size computer (micro:bit or Calliope mini) to respond to buttons, tilts, shakes, light, and more. Display icons or short animations or the LED display or play tunes through the built-in speaker.
This workshop will use MicroBlocks, a blocks language similar to Scratch. It is suitable for beginners aged 10 and up working independently or younger children working with a parent.
To participate, you will need a laptop computer (not a mobile device).
