The Micro:bit Educational Foundation is a not for profit organization whose goal is to increase diversity in underrepresented groups in STEM. Educators will walk away with a basic understanding of the Micro:Bit and its features, online resources, as well as a plethora of ideas to incorporate Micro:Bits into the classroom. Introducing Micro:Bit robots with Taylor Swift's "The Eras Tour"offers a dynamic and engaging educational experience for all educators. By leveraging the themes and aesthetics of each album era, we have created a series of interactive projects that make learning STEM concepts exciting and relatable. Each project will not only teach technical skills but also encourage creativity and critical thinking. Micro:Bits, known for their affordability, make this interdisciplinary approach accessible, blending music, art, and technology to resonate with students' interests and provide equitable access to coding and robotics.
