Space Invaders on the @microbit_edu V2 is a great project for students new to #coding and #electronics. This will be perfect for our Year 2 arcade game unit! @ianfairhurst @JasonM_2 @s_beaumontjones #edtech #STEM #aussieED

@tcb934 Thanks @tcb934 Do you know why the colour switches between the 1 and 2 at the top left?

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

Looking forward to this week’s #PrimarySTEMChat with @ianfairhurst exploring the endless possibilities that virtual environments offer when exhibiting student STEM learning.

[✨Rachael Lehr✨ @rachaellehr]

It’s a #PrimarySTEMChat week! Join us & guest host @ianfairhurst on Thursday to chat ‘Showcasing #STEM Learning in Virtual Environments’ - everyone is welcome.

@FiMorrison2 @ianfairhurst @tinkercad Our Year 3 boys were tasked with redesigning a space or product to make it more inclusive and accessible - this tied in nicely with our ‘Empathy STEAM’ approach. I’ll find some screenshots and photos of 3D printed projects and PM them to you 👍

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

@ianfairhurst @FiMorrison2 @tinkercad Hey Fi, Sorry for the late reply - I’ve been a bit slack on Twitter lately! We’ve had great success with TinkerCAD projects and 3D printing, particularly with Years 2 & 3. Our Year 2 boys designed sustainable packaging solutions to combat single-use plastics.

The perfect project for a cold, rainy weekend! This DIY speaker kit from @lbhq has been a heap of fun to build. It even features an LED sound meter which creates a cool effect through the transparent case when in a dark room. #diy #electronics #maker

This 3D printed robotic arm by @daghizmo on @thingiverse is a fantastic project for students to explore automation with #microbit or #arduino. It’s easy to print and assemble and uses widely available SG90 servos. #edtech #STEM #3dprinting #robotics

@Boomer_1989 @microbit_edu @ianfairhurst @JasonM_2 @s_beaumontjones I've sent you a PM with the code 🙂

@Boomer_1989 @microbit_edu @ianfairhurst @JasonM_2 @s_beaumontjones Hey Adam,
It was written in MakeCode with blocks 👍

Thanks to @tttamer for the idea and code!

Putting the @TiertimeCorp X5 to good use with this #3Dprinted robotic arm from @thingiverse. Queuing up all the parts and leaving overnight is such a time saver. Now to assemble and get #coding! #3Dprinting #STEM #edtech #maker #robotics

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

Experimenting with @microbit_edu and @blynk_app to create #IoT devices for upcoming student projects. The ESP8266 WiFi module opens a world of potential for #microbit projects. Full guide coming soon! #STEM #aussieED

@JasonM_2 @jumekubo @MSMakeCode @microbit_edu @ianfairhurst I wonder if the RBG LED included in the boys’ micro:bit kits is bright enough - we’ll have to try it out…

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

@JasonM_2 @Leontynesjr @Kitronik @microbit_edu @AMSSchools @MSMakeCode What a cool idea! 🚗

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

@JasonM_2 @jumekubo @MSMakeCode @microbit_edu We have a few faulty Neopixel strips that we could sacrifice to try this! @ianfairhurst

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

I can’t wait for the day that #3Dprinting becomes more affordable and fast enough to print everyday objects like these at home in a matter of minutes! It’ll certainly save me a lot of trips to the hardware store! #prototyping #creativity #diy

[Tinkercad @tinkercad]

Tinkercad's Making at Home is full of common household supplies. Use it for prototyping or documenting designs that can be made from everyday things. Learn more: https://t.co/5zfcOQitIT

So many great ideas from the #PrimarySTEMChat tonight! How lucky are we to be part of such an amazing community of educators! Well done to @ianfairhurst for being such a great host! #STEM

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

@rachaellehr I ask students to identify issues they have witnessed in the community and think of a solution. It's rudimentary, but seems to work!

[Angus Fabian @AngusFabian]

A1. Students embarking on a #passionproject will inherently have the enthusiasm and drive to find a #creative and #innovative solution to anything they put their mind to. #PrimarySTEMChat #STEM
