CHARGE
for micro:bit
for micro:bit
Do more with your micro:bits across grades and subjects while promoting environmental responsibility and reducing e-waste.
Use micro:bit for real-world experiments and hands-on STEM projects like environmental monitoring to biodiversity studies.
Take micro:bit into the field to gather data in various environments— from the classroom to the school yard, in nature and beyond.
Count steps, go on a geochaching treasure hunt using the compass, or measure the distance between landmarks.
Physical and Outdoor Ed
Use the accelerometer to track the velocity of throws and kicks, count jumps and squats, or time obstacle course laps.
Environmental Responsibility
Create a sunlight scorecard to find the best place for solar panels or count the pieces of litter around the schoolyard.
We created CHARGE as an eco-friendly alternative to the micro:bit Go pack because we saw the need to reduce the environmental and financial burden of disposable battery use in schools. We can do better.
A district with 25 schools, each with a class set of 20 micro:bits and disposable battery packs, could spend over $5,000 annually on batteries and send 18,000 batteries into landfills every year.
CHARGE is thoughtfully designed with two goals in mind. The first: to offer an eco-friendly alternative to the Go battery pack. The second: to enable more lessons with a wearable and durable one-piece design.
