Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great for STEM and creative projects

The BBC Micro:bit is a simple, affordable, feature-packed computer that's perfect for both creative projects and STEM classes. It comes with an accelerometer/compass (for things like a tilt sensor), a radio (for low-power, short-range communications), a couple of buttons, and an LED matrix. What is particularly good about this device is the simplicity of the user interface and developer community. There are many lesson plans for projects and easy-to-use programming environments to learn from. There are many sample projects and code examples for hobbyists to work with. There is a strong market for BBC micro:bit add-ons such as B. an external speaker for audio. Programming a device is as simple as writing code, connecting the micro:bit via USB, and dragging and dropping the program onto the device. No additional software is required. This kit comes complete with the required micro USB cable, battery holder and storage box. The box is big enough to store everything you need - just hang a cable tie to pack the cable neatly. The battery holder uses two AA batteries, allowing the device to be used without being connected to a computer. There is a practical on/off switch on the battery holder. The kit only costs a few dollars more than the bare board. It's worth having a battery holder and a way to store everything when not in use. The BBC Micro:bit is a fun, affordable computer that encourages exploration. It includes a good set of features, an affordable price, and an active developer community. It's a good choice for kids and curious adults to go through lots of code examples.
