Lesson 31 Sense HAT I
This lesson uses the Raspberry Pi Sense HAT to explore the use of lists. Learners will either use the physical device or an emulator accessed via Trinket to interact with a Sense HAT. This lesson introduces the Sense HAT with some basic techniques in preparation for the next lesson where they will be given a programming challenge to complete. The reason for using a Sense HAT is that it offers a different insight into programming whilst giving learners the opportunity to use a list. A list can be used with the LED matrix to control the individual LEDs. For this lesson it might be helpful if learners were aware of how RGB colours work. This is covered in the data representation unit.
