## Do I need coding experience for Digital Making with micro:bit and IoT?

No. It's an introductory course for adults and teams who want to learn coding and electronics hands-on. You'll program a micro:bit, learn how Internet of Things devices collect and share data, and build a small IoT project such as a remote-controlled device or a sensor-triggered automation. It runs over 1 to 2 days and starts with 5 sign-ups. If you also want to design and 3D print your own parts, take Digital Maker: Create with 3D Printing and IoT instead.

## Course Overview

Digital Making with micro:bit & IoT is an introductory course for adults on coding physical devices. You'll program the micro:bit, a pocket-sized microcontroller, and connect it to the Internet of Things (IoT) to build small smart devices: things that sense their surroundings, respond, and send data online.

## Lesson Outcomes

-   Understand the fundamentals of micro:bit programming: Students will learn basic programming concepts and how to use the micro:bit's built-in features to create simple interactive projects.
    
-   Explore the basics of IoT and its applications: Students will gain knowledge about the Internet of Things, its components, and real-world examples of IoT devices.
    
-   Design and implement a small-scale IoT project: Students will apply their understanding of micro:bit programming and IoT concepts to create a functional IoT project, such as a remote-controlled device or a sensor-based automation system.
