How It Works – Micro:bit Coding Club
Joining Micro:bit Coding Club is simple, flexible, and designed to fit your schedule.
Here’s how it works:
🔹 Each week, you’ll get:
-
A pre-recorded tutorial you can watch any time. Learn new coding skills, follow step-by-step challenges, and try them out at your own pace.
-
A live online session where we explore ideas together, test our code, solve problems, and take on extra challenges. You can join the live session even if you haven’t done the tutorial yet.
🔹 You choose your pace:
-
Watch the tutorial first, then come to the live session with questions or ideas.
-
OR join the live session first, and catch up with the tutorial later.
-
OR just do the tutorials on your own if that works better for you!
🔹 Small group learning:
Each live session is limited to a maximum of 10 children, so everyone gets a chance to share, ask questions, and be supported.
