Micro:bits in Tinkercad

Develop and modify code

Sustainable fabrics for wearable technology

Integrate a Micro:bit into a wearable product

Manufacture a wearable product

Test and evaluate a wearable product

Pupils will deepen their understanding of systems and control. They will be introduced to engineered fabrics and the associated manufacturing processes. This knowledge and understanding will be applied through the design and manufacture of a wearable technology product.

Functional prototypes: wearable technology

Which sensors are built into the micro:bit?

Put the descriptions in the correct order for the program.

A {{}}  loop in a computer program executes the same code a set amount of times.

Why do we simulate programable systems before we download to a real world system?
