Ages 14+

These kits are recommended for ages 14 and over. 

Some of these can be programmed using drag and drop interfaces such as:

  • https://makecode.microbit.org/
  • https://makecode.adafruit.com/

Alternatively, some kits also require easier text-based programming languages such as JavaScript and Python, for those with more advanced skills. Installing editors such as mu editor, or similar editors, can be required to enable more functionality at this level.

Learning to set up and navigate a Linux operating system on a small computer is required for the Raspberry Pi kits.

Some e-textiles/wearable kits may require basic sewing and fabric (scissors) skills.

Use of a screwdriver may be required to build kits at this level.

Some kits require reasonable soldering skills, for multiple components.
