Introduction

The BBoard can also be part of a wider curriculum due to the quality of the components. The light sensor has a spectral response close to that of human eye with an output that is linear across wide illumination range which enables it to be used in Science experiments. The twin input buttons enable the BBoard to be used as a game controller ideal for engaging more challenging students. The BBoard can be embedded into the Technology curriculum, in particular used to teach the electronics part of Product Design.

Al's Tech Garage has many years of practical classroom teaching experience and provides a large number of resources for teachers including lessons and projects using the BBoard at www.AlsTechGarage.co.uk

Bboard Teacher packs are available as a 25 unit bundle.

These work out at a reduced cost of £9.60 per unit (inc. VAT).
