The proposed event will be held over five hours and will be for participants in the age group of 8 years to 18 years. The event will be free and open to all members of the public. The face-to-face mentor-led workshop will be carried on by using tools like Scratch, Codeblock and Micro:Python on the BBC micro:bit through hands-on projects with live streaming. The major attractions/highlights of th

This course will give children opportunities to build AI literacy: understanding what AI tools can and can not do, how to use them thoughtfully and how to spot their limitations. The main message of this course is to remind children that AI is a tool and not an alternative to using their own brains and creativity. This course will empower all children , but particularly SEN children, who may trust

We will use recycled material to create a range of instruments (shakers, drums, rubber-band guitars etc) and experiment with the sounds they produce. We will then build on those instruments using conductive touch points, Makey-Makey’s and Scratch to code new electronic sounds. Attendees will explore different inputs and experiment with rhythm, movement and sound. With the support of Maker{futures}

The event helps young people to explore the wonderful world of science and help them to identify how Science can only happen with the wider ecosystem of support. The goals of the event are for children to develop their programming skills, physical computing skills and maker skills using Lego and connecting moving parts and sensors with the micro:bit. The activities are targeted at young people i

The club will teach Year 7 students how to use block coding to control BBC micro:bits and connected devices such as sensors and robots. It will initially focus on the Digitall Coding for Climate Action project where pupils will design and test early warning systems using sensors, data logging, and radio communication, applying real-world coding and engineering principles to tackle climate hazards

1. What content does the event teach? Mission Lockdown is a free, four-hour workshop introducing young people to coding, artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. Participants work in teams to design, build and program a cyber-secure safe using LEGO Education Computer Science & AI kits. They will learn: * Block-based coding. * How sensors work. * Password and multi-factor authenticati

We plan to run a series of workshops for students with autism and ADHD using LEGO®'s new Computer Science & AI resources to teach resilience, creativity, problem solving and teamwork whilst also enjoying an accessible introduction to AI and robotics. Session 1: Creative Robotics Students explore the hardware and coding tools, setting creative goals and working together with resilience and tea

We are seeking funding to acquire a set of BBC micro:bit microcontrollers for our technology club. This program provides an immersive, hands-on environment for female and female-identifying students (ages 8-18) to explore the intersection of technology, coding, and environmental sustainability through the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This initiative focuses on technology and coding, ru

Primary aged children will enhance their curriculum, writing code that would use the power of V2 Microbits to measure environmental data on a mission into space to land on the moon. Living on a peninsula with limited connections and high deprivation, disadvantaged children will learn more about Cornwall Spaceport and digital careers of the future. Both girls and boys will use both block coding an
