Duck Marshall 🚲I pulled out my <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microbit</a> to play while my kids were monopolising my Nintendo Switch to play <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Minecraft" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Minecraft</a> cooperatively. When they ran out of screen time, my eldest laid claim to my micro:bit, too, now working on a "radio" game which involves passing messages between two micro:bits. Iterative, joyful improvements!Meanwhile, youngest is out at Fire Club spinning <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/poi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#poi</a> with husband, which I'm sure they're both enjoying.Definitely winning at this <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/parenting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#parenting</a> malarkey this evening!

Duck Marshall 🚲A friend shared some videos she did for the <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microbit</a> and I watched them with my 7-year-old who got super enthusiastic and wanted one. My micro:bit arrived the very next day and he IMMEDIATELY got stuck in trying to code with it; he'd done some <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/scratch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#scratch</a> at school so was comfortable with the visual coding. He followed the hot potato tutorial and improved it with his own sound effects. This is already an absolute win! Looks like I'm going to need to buy another for myself, this one is his now!

Pete Prodoehl 🍕I'm working on a new parametric design to hold micro:bit boards... You can change the number of boards, space between them, and angle they insert... they also snap into place with a nice little "click" and don't fall out. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/openScad" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#openScad</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/3Dprinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3Dprinting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microbit</a>

Sherri W (SyntaxSeed)My complaint remains from the <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Arduino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Arduino</a> though. Lessons have an over-emphasis on the coding part but only cursory explanation of circuits & electronics.It amounts to mostly blindly following a wiring diagram.Also haven't found much in the way of Official video lessons other than kits for teachers. 🤔Currently using the big lesson PDF from Freenove (the company behind the <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Microbit</a> + extras kit we bought).

Sherri W (SyntaxSeed)One of my sons received a <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/MicroBit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MicroBit</a> for his birthday. It's a microcontroller kit similar to <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Arduino" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Arduino</a>, but a bit more kid/student friendly. With input buttons & an LED matrix display & various sensors right on the board. Very cool. He can program it with a Scratch-style visual block language (or JS or Python).<a href="https://phpc.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#electronics</a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/STEM" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#STEM</a> <a href="https://phpc.social/tags/Circuits" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Circuits</a>

iotarSpent most of this morning bricolaging* a cradle for the BBC Microbit (red-LED device top left) so that it hangs from the top bar of the Z correctly. These are the important things to get right while maintaining yr monogram.* I am an English teacher and if I say that "to bricolage" is a verb, it's a fucking verb.<a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microbit</a>

Pete Prodoehl 🍕I've had more than one micro:bit board button fail when the solder joint broke loose.It also looks like only the bottom leg is connected electrically so if that one comes loose you've got no button.(Well, you can press it *really* hard to force it to make contact.)Easy to fix with a dab of solder for those who can solder but still a bit annoying.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microbit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#electronics</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/stem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#stem</a>

Coprolite9000Having an introverted few days, and I could be playing fancy new games on a Steam Deck - only instead I'm programming a tiny little game on a BBC micro:bit.5x5 red LEDs, with brightness adjustable from 0 to 9! Two buttons! Squeaky little speaker, for beepy sound effects and gleefully robotic speech synthesis!(Game is 'Volcano Escape' - it started off as a simple driving game but, with creative input from the 7-year-old nephew, now has a Proper Setting...)<a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/microbit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#microbit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/gamesdev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gamesdev</a> <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/micropython" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#micropython</a>
