an early model of a program or digital system

a physical machine that can perform computations and process information electronically

Reflecting on a physical computing project

Computing

Creating programs on a physical computing device

Using input and output

Connecting micro:bits to other hardware

Designing a physical computing project

Developing a physical computing project

In this unit, pupils will plan, develop, and evaluate a physical computing project. They will break down the project into smaller, easier-to-solve tasks. They will put these plans into action to create a working prototype that they use to evaluate their successes and identify future improvements.

Physical computing using the micro:bit

What is the term for an early model of a system?

creating a user guide or project explanation

they help in understanding and improving the process

Why are evaluations important in a project?

think about successes and areas for improvement

What does it mean to reflect on a project?

It provides insights into different capabilities.

How can comparing different physical computing devices be beneficial?

Order the steps to transfer a program to the micro:bit.
