# Resources and Going Further

Here is some more information that may help you along in learning more about the world of electronics.

## More about how motors work 
<!-- youtube(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onjFFoOC_yk) -->

What is a battery: [https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/what-is-a-battery](https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/what-is-a-battery)
Types of motors (and how to select the right one): [https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/motors-and-selecting-the-right-one](https://learn.sparkfun.com/tutorials/motors-and-selecting-the-right-one)


## More about the micro:bit 
* [SparkFun micro:bit ecosystem](https://sparkfuneducation.com/maker-education/microbit.html) -- We produce a number of other kits and carrier boards that you can hook up to your  micro:bit to help take your projects to the next level. We have dedicated an entire page for you to explore where you can go from here with the micro:bit

## Full Kit Contents List

Things sometimes break or get lost, it's part of making and tinkering! If you need to replace a part here is a list of the individual components that make up the Red Hat Co. Lab Robotics Kit from the SparkFun catalog.

## Master Connection List
This table shows you how things are connected. On the left side of the table is the board (the moto:bit in this case), in the middle is the color jumper wire, and in the right column is the “far end” connection (either one of the motors or one of the Line Sensors).  This is a kind of shorthand for the step-by-step instructions that tell you exactly where each end of each connection goes, so sometimes instructions will give you a table like this rather than step-by-step instructions
