Teach Programming, Coding, and Electronics to Middle School Students

Teach middle school students the basics of programming, coding, and electronics with ease. No prior knowledge or experience is necessary, as the kits guide you step-by-step. You'll be supported with teacher guides, and lessons can be paced according to your students’ abilities.

• Integrate the kit throughout the curriculum, allowing students to build confidence in programming and electronics through guided sessions and open experimentation.
• Teach vital 21st-century skills such as collaboration and problem-solving.

What's Included in the Arduino Education Starter Kit

The Arduino Education Starter Kit contains everything needed for eight students (in groups of 2), including:

• Hardware and software
• Step-by-step lessons
• Teacher notes
• Exercises

Additionally, there are extra optional resources for a complete and in-depth class experience, including:

• Activities
• Concepts
• History
• Interesting facts

Online Platform and Lessons

The online platform includes:

• Teacher content
• Nine 90-minute lessons
• Two open-ended group projects

These lessons teach students coding and electronics, with each lesson building on the previous one. This structure gives students more opportunities to apply the skills and concepts they’ve learned.

Students also receive an engineering logbook to complete as they work through the lessons.

Lesson Structure

Each lesson is carefully designed to ensure smooth learning:

• Overview, estimated completion times, and learning objectives are provided at the beginning.
• Teacher notes and information are included throughout to help the lesson flow seamlessly.
• Extension ideas are provided at the end of each lesson for further exploration.
