| Abstract | Micro: bit, a compact computing device, has become a vital tool for learning and innovation in the digital economy era, where economic systems are driven by digital technologies, including the use of the internet. This academic article elucidates the diverse role of the Micro: bit in education and the cultivation of essential skills for students in the context of the rapidly advancing digital landscape. The Micro: bit is utilized as a foundation for teaching coding, basic programming, and developing computational skills for students due to its user-friendly nature, compact design, and affordability. This device facilitates exploration of the technology world and basic programming concepts. Moreover, in the context of the digital economy, the Micro: bit plays a crucial role in preparing individuals for the workforce by instilling problem-solving skills, creativity, and a deep understanding of technology. This article serves as an example of integrating the Micro:bit into classroom teaching, aiding in the development of critical 21st-century skills for students, enabling them to adapt to the ever-changing demands of the digital era, and fostering future innovators.A review of related literature and research indicates that the Micro: bit is a highly effective tool for developing computational thinking and coding skills, suitable for students of all ages. It can be used to create a wide range of innovative projects, promoting problem-solving skills and creativity. However, to effectively incorporate the Micro: bit into teaching, educators must possess specialized knowledge and skills, as well as the ability to manage time and resources to enhance students' learning experiences. Both teachers and students should be prepared to embrace change and continuous development to create meaningful learning experiences. |
