https://www.teachengineering.org/activities/view/umo-2972-muscle-biopotential-signals-emg-sensors-activity
Materials for teacher:
- whiteboard or large piece of paper
Each group needs:
- 1 laptop/computer with internet access
- 1 micro:bit V2 starter kit
- 1 2.0 MyoWare muscle sensor
- 3-9 MyoWare electrodes (depends on number of trials conducted; can also use 3M red dot electrodes)
- access to MakeCode online program (https://makecode.microbit.org)
- 1 pair of scissors
- 3 connecting wires for the micro:bit
- 2 alligator clips
- 1 chronometer or cellphone timer
- Peer Review Handout (Note: Each group needs one handout for every other group they are reviewing. For example, if there are 5 groups total, each group will need 4 handouts—one for each of the other groups.)
Each student needs:
- 1 Day 1 Handout
- 1 Day 2 Handout
- 1 Day 3 Handout
- 1 writing utensil
