Wappsto:bit
For Teachers
Wappsto:bit is an extension for the popular microcomputer BBC micro:bit that connects it to the Wappsto cloud.
Prepare students age 10+ for future success!
STEM, programming, data science and Internet of Things are now hands-on and Child’s Play.
Use Wappsto:bit to…
✅ Ensure high student engagement and build confidence with modern technology (Internet of Things) with hands-on projects
✅ Let students explore and work with their OWN real data, perfect supplement for STEM
✅ Teach programming and data science fundamentals
Spotlight: Air Quality Kit
Let your students take charge of the Air Quality in the classroom!
Use Wappsto:bit as a…
Smart Device.
✅ Teach programming logics while making fun with projects that can be controlled through the internet.
✅ Talk about why it can make sense for some devices to the internet (And when it doesn’t)
What is this “Internet of Things” anyway, and why does a lawnmower and a fridge need to be connected to the internet?
Use Wappsto:bit as a Smart device to simulate real life smart products, for example a candy drawer alarm, remote alarm clock or much else.
Measurement Instrument
Take student engagement in STEM to the next level.
Let your students collect, visualize and analyse REAL data.
✅ Out of the box you can measure REAL data in real time: | ✅ Lots of external sensors available So far we have good experience with sensors for: |
🌡️ Temperature | 🌫️ Co2 level (PPM) |
🔊 Sound level | 🛬 Air pressure (hPa) |
💡 Light level (micro:bit V2 only) | 💦 Humidity (%) |
🧭 Compass | 🍋 pH level |
💨 Acceleration / Movement (XYZ) | ☀️ Ultraviolet light (UV) |
📐 Orientation (XYZ) | 🌱 Soil moisture |
🔄 Rotation (°) | |
🧲 Magnetic force (μT XYZ) |
Game
Sometimes there has to be space for fun and games!
Gamify your physics, PE or other lessons with Wappsto:bit!
✅ Wappsto:bit will keep track of your games, no cheating possible!
✅ Have fun with physics (Who can shake at 1,5G acceleration in fewewst attempts? Or who is fastest to reach a 90 degree rotation?)
✅ Integrate into physical exercise classes, for e.g. Running patterns!
✅ Play fun reaction games to see who is faster
✅ Use Wappsto:bit as your Quiz master
