This course will introduce you to Arduino components and programming, with a focus on exploration, skill-building, and the creation of useful devices for teachers to utilize in their classrooms.

Students will learn how to utilize an Arduino single-board computer to generate and measure data, how to effectively develop circuits to use sensors and motors, and how to write programs to control the functions of the Arduino components.  

Please plan on bringing your own laptop/tablet as well as the ability to recharge them if needed. We are also providing each instructor with a list of the people registered for their classes, so you will hear from them with more details. If you don’t have a laptop, please let your instructor know when they contact you so other arrangements can be made.

Graduate Credit: TBD
