Abstract

MicroCode is a new tile based programming language that makes it possible to program the micro:bit without the need for an extra computer or Internet connection. All the programming takes place on a handheld shield. Come along and try out this new way of coding! All equipment is provided. With no written words, on the tiles children as young as 6 can join in.
