⚡️BREAKING: micro:bit CreateAI launches today 🎉 ! This World Children’s Day, use micro:bit CreateAI to inspire students to play a positive role in shaping the future of AI. Use your movement data and micro:bit to train a machine learning model - and then use it in code. 🤩 We're so excited - read more! https://lnkd.in/dsD7Buwy #WorldChildrensDay #microbit #createAI #TechForGood #EdTech #STEMeducation #AI #AIeducation #CSteachers #csforall

FREE WEBINAR for micro:bit CreateAI! 💥 Learn about our new free online tool for teaching and learning about AI with the micro:bit. 💥 Discover how quickly and easily learners from 8 years up can create micro:bit projects with AI. 💥 micro:bit CreateAI makes it easy for learners to practise building and applying machine learning (ML), a common type of AI. 🤓 In the webinars we'll demonstrate how to collect and label data, train an ML model to recognise different physical movements, then test and improve models before using them in MakeCode programs you can transfer to micro:bits. https://lnkd.in/dgZD7u9Y #microbit #createAI #TechForGood #EdTech #STEMeducation #AI #AIeducation #CSteachers #csforall #microbitCreateAI #ComputerScienceTeachers

🎉To celebrate Ceibal‘s 11th Robotics: Programming and Video Games Olympiad of Ceibal, Head of Partnerships LATAM, Jose Antonio Scodiero visited the event to see the entries for the do your :bit category. In this STEAM competition, students design solutions to real-world problems & United Nations's Global Goals using the micro:bit. The range of projects on display were not only brilliant but proved to make choosing the winners very difficult! It’s always a terrific STEAM celebration - and it is great to see the do your :bit competition feature as part of such an esteemed event. Until next year…. #OlimpíadaCeibal #microbit #doyourbit #GlobalGoals #OlimpíadaCeibal 🎖️ #CeibalSTEM 💡 #TechForGood #DoYourBitWithMicrobit #SDGs #Uruguay #Ceibal #STEM #STEAM #STEMeducation #STEAMeducation

🕹️ We all know how much students like games but get them coding the games themselves and it's a great way to get them intersted in creative coding too 🙌 . Thanks to micro:bit Champion Chris Lovell for these 4 retro games perfect for beginners and suitable to extend for pupils with coding experience. #teachers #codeclub #microbit #codingforkids #csteachers #microbitCHAMPION #microbitCHAMPIONS

🥳 We are very excited to announce and support micro:bit Live Madrid 2024 - we'd love to see you there! El próximo 19 de noviembre de 2024, Sistema THEAD coorganiza micro:bit Live Madrid 2024 juntamente con la Fundación Educativa Micro:bit y otros destacados colaboradores, un evento que reunirá a profesores, investigadores y expertos para compartir y aprender con la BBC micro:bit, una placa programable que ya ha llegado a más de 44 millones de niños en todo el mundo. ¡No podemos esperar más para compartir contigo! El tema central del encuentro será “Promoviendo la Equidad de Género en las STEAM”, donde exploraremos cómo herramientas tecnológicas como la micro:bit pueden fomentar la equidad en las aulas. ¿Qué encontrarás? Abordaremos cómo los enfoques inclusivos no solo mejoran las habilidades y competencias, sino que también inspiran a las nuevas generaciones a romper estereotipos y participar activamente en un futuro tecnológico más equitativo. Además, descubrirás nuevas funciones de micro:bit, como la incorporación del machine learning con IA. ¡Si estás interesado, inscríbete ya en www.microbitlivemadrid.org ! 📲 ¡Esto no sería posible sin el generoso apoyo de HispaRob, 42 Barcelona Fundación Telefónica, Asociación ByLinEdu Asociación Espiral y más! #microbitLiveMadrid #EquidadDeGénero #STEAM #TecnologíaInclusiva #BestDigitalFuture #SistemaTHEAD
