    Inclusive Innovation with BirdBrain Technologies

    Help the CodeJoy and Strawbees team design and test building structures that can withstand an earthquake. This earthquake will be simulated by a micro:bit-powered shake table made with the Strawbees Robotic Invention Kit as we explore UN Global Goal 13 - Climate Action. This session was facilitated by Kelsey Derringer & Matt Chilbert of CodeJoy, Lindsay Balfour of Strawbees, and Dr. Gabe Lotto of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network for do your :bit challenge.
