To continue our support of the BBC and micro:bit Foundation’s micro:bit – the next-gen campaign, Technocamps are again hosting professional learning events for practitioners in Wales during February and March 2025. The event is most suited to practitioners in upper primary and lower secondary.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The training events will run as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

South West Wales<\/strong>
Technocamps HQ – Margam Building – Swansea University
Friday 14th February
10:00 am – 15:00 pm
Sign up: https:\/\/tc1.me\/microbitSwanseaPL<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

North Wales<\/strong>
Conwy Business Centre
Tuesday 18th February
10:00 am – 15:00 pm
Sign up: https:\/\/tc1.me\/microbitNorthWalesPL<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

South East Wales<\/strong>
Abacws Building – Cardiff University
Wednesday 5th March
10:00 am – 15:00 pm
Sign up: https:\/\/tc1.me\/microbitCardiffPL<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are working with Techniquest, who manages the PL contract for Wales, on behalf of STEM Learning. Fifteen practitioners from state schools can apply for a \u00a3130 teacher award to cover supply\/associated costs for attending this training, as we expect many more attendees, this award will be on a first come first serve basis.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

During this interactive session, teachers will explore the brand new machine learning tool, which will allow learners to program the micro:bit using a model they can train themselves. This tool will be demonstrated with activities covering a selection of the areas of Learning and Experience included in the Curriculum for Wales. Following this, practitioners will be led through the micro:bit\u2019s data logging feature and how this can be used in various ways to cover the data handling aspects found in the Curriculum for Wales and the Digital Competency Framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We ask that practitioners bring their own micro:bit devices and laptops<\/strong> to program them where possible. <\/strong>There have been issues with Chromebooks connecting to wi-fi networks outside of school in the past.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: The activities covered will require the V2 micro:bits<\/strong> first launched in 2020. These are easily identifiable by the central speaker on the back of the device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
