About This Item
Description
Inspire deep and joyful learning with the micro:bit-powered Hummingbird Bit Robotics Kit! The Hummingbird Robotics Kit comprises lights, sensors, and motors, allowing students to build a robot out of any materials. The power of Hummingbird is in its flexibility - the same reusable kit can animate a poem, model the human arm, build an autonomous rover, or create a pinball machine. Hummingbird epitomizes a low-floor, high-ceiling approach: absolute beginners can build & program a robot in minutes, but continue learning advanced engineering & programming for years. Please note that this Hummingbird Bit model uses micro:bit as its processor; you must have micro:bits to operate the kits, and 16 AA batteries are needed (not included).Features
All Hummingbird Bit Robotics Kits include:
- Free classroom-tested and standards-aligned learning materials, such as programming tutorials, lesson plans, and printable student activities
- Out-of-the-box compatibility with all laptops and most tablets
- Free software that is tested to work with school IT environments
- Support for block-based and text-based programming environments, including MakeCode, Python, and Java
- Electrically protected connectors that allow students to easily add multiple motors, sensors, and LEDs without risk of harm due to incorrect connections
- Free online professional development, including classroom curriculum integration planning
- Classroom-ready packaging, including sturdy cases, sorting compartments, and stackable containers
