Introducing the BBC micro:bit
Howard Baker, BBC Learning

The BBC has unveiled the BBC micro:bit, a pocket-sized programmable computer with motion detection, a built-in compass and Bluetooth technology, which is to be given free to every child in year 7 or equivalent across the UK.

A collaboration between 29 partners, the micro:bit is the BBC’s most ambitious education initiative in 30 years, with an ambition to inspire digital creativity and develop a new generation of tech pioneers.

CoderDojo are amongst the national partners for the project and in this session we’ll hear from Howard Baker, Innovations Editor at BBC Learning about the vision for the micro:bit

Book a ticket now and be one of the first people in the country to see the micro:bit in action before it’s launch next year.
