What an energetic day supporting Project Wellbeing at @HSofDundee. Great opportunity to explore how we can design and personalise tech to support our wellbeing using @microbit_edu. And to collect exercise data too. These learners made a mindful breathing animation of a heart

This is what we did at our last code-along @DigiLearnScot 💚
Teachers! Have you discovered all the amazing things you can do with your #BBCmicrobit yet? The gamers from @CBBC’s Lagging had a go at ‘Hot Potato’, a brilliant, easy project for some end-of-term fun!
