Final Project Overview
The final project is an opportunity for students to apply the skills they have learned throughout the semester to create something original that solves a problem or serves a purpose. This project encourages creativity and practical application of coding concepts, with a focus on integrating tangible components with the micro:bit.
Key Features:
- Project Ideas: Suggestions include creating games, problem-solving tools, or artistic instruments.
- Learning Objectives: Students must demonstrate knowledge of previously covered concepts and incorporate new techniques learned independently.
- Maker Component: Projects should include physical components that interact with the micro:bit, enhancing the learning experience.
- Assessment Criteria: Emphasis on both the process (work logs, records of thinking) and the final product (project code and maker component).
- Timeline: The project spans three weeks, with weekly submissions and a final showcase event to celebrate student achievements.
Use Cases:
- Ideal for students in coding or technology courses looking to apply their knowledge in a practical setting.
- Encourages collaboration and peer feedback through beta testing and project showcases.
