St. Theresa wished to immerse its students in the rapidly evolving world of technology. The aim was to inspire students across different grades to collaborate, create, and gain hands-on experience with microcontrollers. The challenge lay in ensuring comprehensive learning within a short span and enabling students to develop tangible projects, reflecting their understanding and creativity.
The collaboration with St. Theresa Catholic School exemplified the beauty of merging education with technology. It wasn't just about creating robots; it was about lighting the spark of innovation in these young minds. By the program's conclusion, students not only presented their creations with pride but also went home with certificates, a tangible reminder of their technological journey and achievements.
Victoria, Valentina, and Lorenze (grades 1-3) worked together to develop a robotic airplane made from classroom supplies. They connected the Micro:bit and coded button interactions that would simulate plane sounds.
Sebastian, Alex, and Matias (grades 4-7) developed their own robopet: Robocat! Robocat reacts to shaking, petting, sounds, and more! Through the Micro:bit code, they recorded Robocat's happiness over time.
Using the Micro:bit wired to a series of buttons and buzzers, students developed a rudimentary electronic musical instrument. Play your own song if you have the skills!
