Radio and Communication
This lesson covers the use of more than one micro:bit to share and combine data. Students will explore a complex epidemiological program (Infection) that demonstrates the Radio functionality of the micro:bit. Students will send and receive numbers and strings in a series of guided activities. Finally, students are asked to collaborate so that they can share their micro:bits and create a project together.
Lesson objectives
Students will...
- Understand how to use the Radio blocks to send and receive data between micro:bits
- Understand the specific types of data that can be sent over the Radio
