Innovation Challenge
 |
You are going to design and make a prototype solution to a problem that you have identified. It could be for yourself or for someone else (it depends who has the problem!) |
| |
|
You must identify a problem and solve it using your Micro:bit |
| |
|
It must use a variety of inputs/sensors and outputs. |
| |
|
The design and construction should be creative, using resources available to you. |
| |
|
You must document the Problem, your Design and the Solution in your journal. |
|
When you have completed your Innovation Challenge make sure you:
Complete the Reflection Task in your journal.
Carefully look through your Journal to check that ypu have completed all the sections. |
Resources
Step 1: Identifying the problem
 |
What do you already know about the problems? |
|
What specific problem would you like to focus on? |
|
What else do you need to find out about the problem? |
Step 2: Solutions to the problem
|
What solutions do you already know exist? |
|
What other technological solutions could there be? |
|
Brainstorm all the ideas you can think of. |
Step 3: Create your solution
 |
Work out which sensors, input and devices you need to use (Button A, Servo, LED etc) |
|
Work out how to build your model (cardboard, string, blue tack etc) |
|
Write the Code to run on your Micro:bit. Test and modify it untill it does what you want. |
A suitable project could be a device that improves the environment in some way or something that improves somebody's well-being.
It is an opportunity to show what you have learned and to be creative, thinking outside of the box.
