03 March 11:00 – 11:45, Code Along – Networks and Radio Communication with micro:bit Second Level Learners +

In this live lesson, for second level learners and above, we will send messages between two or more BBC micro:bits (this is possible with the simulator and with actual devices).  To protect our messages, we will use some simple encryption to ensure that our messages cannot be intercepted and read anyone other than who we intend them to be read by.
