REQUIREMENTS AND PREPARATIONS:
A computer, preferably Windows/Mac with Chrome/Firefox.
A separate computer/iPad with Zoom installed to follow the class.
A Micro:bit and correct cable to connect it to the computer
One day before the class, information regarding the Zoom-meeting and what page we use will be published in the Wechat-group for the course
DESCRIPTION OF CLASS:
These classes are meant as introductory classes to the possibilities of chip programming. The goal of the classes are to introduce to the student where we find these microcontrollers in every day items and that it is easy to program something that interacts with the real world and not just prints text on the screen.
The class will start with an introduction to the micro:bit and what it is capable of and how we interact with it, followed by connecting it to the computer and starting coding in the web browser using blocks for codes instead of writing actual code.
Me, as the instructor will do the tasks in a slow pace and explain all my thinking, and students can choose to be faster than me or follow along.
Since the level of students vary, some will be quick and some will be slow. This is completely natural and those who need the most guidance I usually spend extra time with at the end of the class so they get to finish the tasks.
QUESTIONS?
You can ask me in the Wechat group, or directly in Wechat.

DESCRIPTION OF CLASS:
These classes build on the previous classes held in spring and summer of 2020. We will quickly review what we did previously before we continue explore more concepts of programming.
Every class will start with simple theory, followed by everyone coding in the web browser using blocks for codes instead of writing actual code. This makes it possible for younger kids to participate as they are not required to type on a keyboard, but instead drag blocks around.

Description of class:
We will go through a basic introduction of what programming is and where we can find it in everyday things. In addition we will talk about basic concepts in programming like loops (while) and conditionals (if-else) without going deep into techincal details.
