As part of the project "Schools for the 21st Century", the "Petlja” (Loop) foundation has developed an online manual "Micropayton for Microbit", which is intended for the implementation of project teaching in the seventh and eighth grades of primary school.

The manual relies on the application of Micropayton for the microbit device control and contains various detailed examples for creating the projects that students can develop together with their teachers. Apart from the examples of projects, additional resources are provided for the students who want to further research and design their own projects and express creativity in the use of microbit devices.

In addition to the manual, a two-day online training on the use of microbites in project teaching in the seventh and eighth grades will be organized for IT and computer science teachers, about which teachers will be informed later on. The training is accredited for 16 hours.

The project "Schools for the 21st Century", which includes all primary schools in the Republic of Serbia, is implemented in partnership with the British Council and the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development, while it is funded by the Government of Great Britain.
