Upcoming Training Events

Coding & Robotics

 

We are super excited to be offering this course to all our teachers in South Africa.

​

With the new coding and robotics curriculum being presented by the DBE, the BBC micro:bit is the top microcontroller for delivering all the requirements in hardware and the block-based coding, the curriculum is looking for.

​

Students can learn block-based coding or JavaScript/Python using the Microsoft MakeCode platform; advanced students can begin to code using a separate Python editor.

​

We introduce you to the Hardware, Software of MakeCode, and then show you the pedagogical way in which to best use the BBC micro:bit to deliver fun, engaging, simple to complex lessons and how you can easily get your PAT's (Practical Assessment Tasks) using the BBC micro:bit.

​

And receive your own New Version (V2) micro:bit!!!!

​

Launch Price:

• micro:bits for beginners SACE Accredited (10 Points)

• R900.00 includes shipping your micro:bit. R400.00 if you have your own BBC micro:bit

​

Requirements:

• No previous experience is needed.

• A working laptop or PC with a good internet connection (Windows 10 would be great)

​

Course details:

• The course is 3hrs maximum

• Prior learning material will be sent (internet-based, ideally completed before the course starts)

• Payment is upfront to book your seat and confirm your BBC micro:bit so it can be sent to you in time (should you already have a BBC micro:bit the course will be R400.00)
