Mathias MagdowskiWir starteten heute mit einer großen <a href="https://bildung.social/tags/MINTmachen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MINTmachen</a> Veranstaltung an der <a href="https://bsky.brid.gy/r/https://bsky.app/profile/uni-magdeburg.de" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@uni-magdeburg.de</a> mit rund 50 Mädchen der 3. und 4. Klasse aus verschiedenen Magdeburger Grundschulen in den April, falteten den original <a href="https://bildung.social/tags/Kinderuni" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Kinderuni</a> Papierflieger, experimentierten mit Elektrobaukästen, bauten Putzroboter mit Bürsten, erzeugten Wasserstoff und Sauerstoff zum Betrieb von Spielzeugautos mit Brennstoffzellen, programmierten kleine <a href="https://bildung.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a> Controller und machen vieles mehr. <a href="https://bildung.social/tags/MagdeMINT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MagdeMINT</a>

Pete Prodoehl 🍕I'm working on a new parametric design to hold micro:bit boards... You can change the number of boards, space between them, and angle they insert... they also snap into place with a nice little "click" and don't fall out. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openScad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#openScad</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/3Dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#3Dprinting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a>

Pete Prodoehl 🍕(I don't mention my day-job related stuff here much but...)US-based teachers and librarians can receive $500+ of our micro:bit kits for free.Join us this summer for a free PD course with Pathfinders Summer Institute. Choose "Circuitry and Robotics with LEGO and MicroBit" by Brown Dog Gadgets.30 hours of virtual PD & we send you all the materials: A Bit Board Rover Kit and Remote. Spots are limited so apply now. :)➡️ <a href="http://p2url.com/pathfinders" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">http://p2url.com/pathfinders</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/STEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#STEM</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/STEAM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#STEAM</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/edu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#edu</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a>

Sherri W (SyntaxSeed)My complaint remains from the <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Arduino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Arduino</a> though. Lessons have an over-emphasis on the coding part but only cursory explanation of circuits & electronics.It amounts to mostly blindly following a wiring diagram.Also haven't found much in the way of Official video lessons other than kits for teachers. 🤔Currently using the big lesson PDF from Freenove (the company behind the <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Microbit</a> + extras kit we bought).

Sherri W (SyntaxSeed)One of my sons received a <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/MicroBit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MicroBit</a> for his birthday. It's a microcontroller kit similar to <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Arduino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Arduino</a>, but a bit more kid/student friendly. With input buttons & an LED matrix display & various sensors right on the board. Very cool. He can program it with a Scratch-style visual block language (or JS or Python).<a href="https://phpc.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electronics</a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/STEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#STEM</a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Circuits" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Circuits</a>

iotarSpent most of this morning bricolaging* a cradle for the BBC Microbit (red-LED device top left) so that it hangs from the top bar of the Z correctly. These are the important things to get right while maintaining yr monogram.* I am an English teacher and if I say that "to bricolage" is a verb, it's a fucking verb.<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a>

Pete Prodoehl 🍕I've had more than one micro:bit board button fail when the solder joint broke loose.It also looks like only the bottom leg is connected electrically so if that one comes loose you've got no button.(Well, you can press it *really* hard to force it to make contact.)Easy to fix with a dab of solder for those who can solder but still a bit annoying.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#electronics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/stem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stem</a>

Luciano RamalhoI used a micro:bit to build a speed monitor for H0-scale model trains. It's programmed in <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/micropython" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#micropython</a>.Today I wrote the calibration code, which gives instant feedback when aiming the lasers at the light sensors.<a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#python</a>

Coprolite9000Having an introverted few days, and I could be playing fancy new games on a Steam Deck - only instead I'm programming a tiny little game on a BBC micro:bit.5x5 red LEDs, with brightness adjustable from 0 to 9! Two buttons! Squeaky little speaker, for beepy sound effects and gleefully robotic speech synthesis!(Game is 'Volcano Escape' - it started off as a simple driving game but, with creative input from the 7-year-old nephew, now has a Proper Setting...)<a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/gamesdev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#gamesdev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/micropython" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#micropython</a>

Rob 🤷‍♂️<a href="https://ciberlandia.pt/@villares" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@villares</a> Fun thing to do with things like the <a href="https://genart.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a> too using things like the accelerometer and other inputs like light sensor and sound level.I did something for <a href="https://genart.social/tags/genuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#genuary</a> using <a href="https://genart.social/tags/Processing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Processing</a> and sound levels a couple of years ago I think. There are a couple of prompts for 2025 that might be fun to control with hardware.

Chris HuffeeAssembled pcb for a microbit aeroplane project. As much experimenting with pcbs as 3d construction material as anything else at this stage, until I actually get the planes flying. It's been in my head for a good few years so nice to see it fitting together. <a href="https://does.social/tags/weeknotes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#weeknotes</a> <a href="https://does.social/tags/jlcpcb" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#jlcpcb</a> <a href="https://does.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#microbit</a>
