EA-MICROBIT-V2-OR MicroBit V2 - Electronic Adventure Kit, OpenRoberta

Eletronic Adventure - Open Roberta Edition

Immerse yourself in the revolution of technology with the brand new Electronic Adventure Kit, developed in close cooperation with the renowned Fraunhofer Institute and supported by the innovative OpenRoberta platform. This pioneering educational project, a cooperation between the electronics experts at Joy-IT and Elektor, takes children and young people aged eight and over on a fascinating journey into the world of microcontrollers.

The kit's extensively equipped travel case guides young explorers through a series of practical, sequential exercises that introduce them to the basics and advanced applications of microcontroller technology. Whether at home or at school, the kit encourages exploration of exciting questions: How does a microcontroller work? How do I program it? And what possibilities does this mini-computer offer? A lovingly designed instruction book with 80 pages, supported by clear explanatory videos and an informative website, makes learning about technology a fun and accessible experience.

In addition, a forum on the website offers help with questions and problems, promotes exchange among users and ensures continuous engagement with the topic. The projects included in the kit are not only educational but also practical, from creating a programming code to building a pedometer or playing music from sheet music. Each exercise starts with a concrete example and leads young users step by step to a successful learning experience. Advanced experiments and transfer tasks further deepen the acquired knowledge.

Practical workshops are offered as part of the "Pact for Computer Science" of the state of NRW and in cooperation with Rhine-Waal University of Applied Sciences. Under the patronage of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, Innovation and Digitalization, the Electronic Adventure Kit symbolizes an innovative approach to promoting education, innovation and creative problem solving.

With all the necessary project components and a child-friendly experimental field, the kit offers a complete learning path that promotes learning success through fun and practical application. Support materials for teachers and parents provide additional background information and suggestions for project implementation, making the Electronic Adventure Kit a comprehensive resource for exploring and experimenting with technology.
