Educators
STEM Educators can turn abstract coding concepts into tangible, interactive experiences. Students write code and instantly see it come alive—blinking LEDs, moving motors, sensing the environment. No soldering, no setup delays—just plug, code, and create.
Hand-picked Options
Technically all DUELink boards can be used in education. However, we have hand selected these DUELink boards for STEM educators.
These educator-focused boards ship preloaded with MicroBlocks. Users can always load and reload any DUELink module with any of the available software options.

When ready, use the Downlink connector for daisylinking other DUELink modules.
Ultra Low-Cost
These low-cost boards offer an edge-connector similar to micro:bit. Everything on-board is fully supported by the DUELink engine and MicroBlocks. Also, with a little experience, users can utilize the edge connector and build extensions to control micro:bit robots and other accessories!
These boards can be coded using DUELink engine or MicroBlocks, and not MakeCode.
Using MakeCode is possible when tethering micro:bit to DUELink modules.

$100 STEM Classroom!
STEMify an entire classroom with everything you need for under $100! Students can double-up and use this pack of 14x CincoBit boards. Worry not, storage boxes and USB cables are also included.

Students will start controlling the LED matrix and making sounds in minutes, then use logic to build games in hours. Everything will be done in the student-friendly MicroBlocks drag-and-drop block coding environment.

Optionally, students can use the edge connector to learn about digital/analog inputs/outputs, and can control motion using servo motors.

Have a micro:bit accessory in mind, such as a robot? A pre-created extension can be used by the students to make a "Dancing robot"!

The journey does not end there as the Downlink connector can be used to Daisylink other DUELink modules, as explained later on this page.

Duino
We have designed DueDuino for all Arduino fans, with matching headers to help you experiment with "Shields".
You can code DueDuino using the DUELink engine, or fully code it using the Arduino IDE, turning it into a low-cost Arduino-compatible board with Downlink connector.
MicroBlocks
Use MicroBlocks for a fantastic block-coding experience! Users drag-and-drop on the PC to instantly see changes on the connected hardware. There is no need to "download" to the device.

Users can run MicroBlocks on the web or they can download local offline software.

Individual product pages above has "Getting Started" steps. You may also visit the MicroBlocks page for more details!
Third-Party Options
DUELink modules work in so many ways, allowing you to continue using your existing hardware and software.
Perhaps you want to use micro:bit with Microsoft MakeCode tethered to an LED module.

Or use Raspberry Pi with Python tethered to a barometer.

Or use Arduino with its software or with MicroPython tethered to a Daisylink of modules.

You can even tether DUELink modules to PCs and Laptops, then control them using JavaScript, Python, .NET, and beyond!

The ever-growing Product Catalog has an impressive list of options!
Chaining Modules
Connect one, or connect them all, DUELink gives you options, thanks to its modern Daisylink.

Not sure which modules to use? Start with the Essential Modules Kit.

DUELink Scripts
While you can use your favorite hardware and software to control DUELink modules, all modules also include a built in scripting engine. Students can utilize this Python-BASIC-like friendly language for a type-coding option. Coding is done on a Console that runs in a web browser and requires no installations.

Arcade Games

Part of GHI Electronics offering is BrainPad Arcade which focuses on game development through Microsoft MakeCode Arcade. DUELink adds physical computing to game development in your classroom. The Arcade page has more info.
A STEMission!

How many students haven't we exposed to technology yet?", asks DUELink founder - Gus Issa, who believes: Tomorrow's greatest ideas will stem from the digital knowledge we plant today.
