During this professional learning workshop, led by former committee member and super experienced technologies teacher, Anthony Gasson, you will learn what you need to know to get started with Micro:Bit in the classroom.

Aimed at teachers who have limited to no experience with Micro:Bit and/or coding, you’ll explore how easy it is to deploy Micro:Bit even with limited knowledge of microcontrollers.  

In the first part of the day you’ll learn the basics, with a combination of guided learning and mini challenges. We’ll then spend the afternoon working through an inquiry lesson from a student's point of view. 

After this workshop you will leave with ideas for how you can deploy Micro:Bit in your own classroom, along with the contacts of likeminded teachers from around the state.
