* Discover the micro:bit programming possibilities and end-to-end programming process by coding a simple script using the Microsoft Block Editor, by taking a short journey into JavaScript, and by working through a Python programming primer.
* Learn about conditional logic via the compass case study, and learn about variable values via the step counter case study.
