Product description: Arduino Education Starter Kit AKX00023 - the official starter kit for schools
Arduino Education Starter Kit AKX00023 designed for teaching the basics of programming, coding and electronics in high schools, including current, voltage and digital logic. Basic knowledge and experience are not required to use the kit. The Arduino Education Starter Kit guides the student step by step through the basics of electronics and programming, and the teacher's guide supports lessons that can be tailored to the students' abilities. The kit can be integrated into the curriculum. The Arduino Educational Kit allows you to lead throughout the semester, giving students the opportunity to gain confidence in programming and electronics, and teach them important 21st century skills.
The kit includes, among others Arduino boards, mounting plates, multimeters, USB cables and 9 V batteries.
What is the Arduino Educational Starter Kit?
The Arduino Educational Kit contains all the hardware and software components needed to work for 8 people (one set for two people). The kit comes with step-by-step lessons, a teacher's guide, activities, and additional optional content that includes activities, concepts, stories and trivia. Teacher resources are available on the online platform , along with nine lessons of 90 minutes each and two open group projects that teach coding and electronics. Each lesson is linked to the previous one, giving students the opportunity to use the skills and concepts they learn. Students also receive a diary that they complete during the course of the class. The beginning of each lesson includes an overview, estimated time for completion, and learning objectives. At the beginning of each lesson, you will find teacher tips and information to help you run the lesson smoothly. And at the end of the lesson, you'll find answers and ideas for extensions.
