Arduino Coding Camp
Class experience
Do you like to invent things? In this 2-week camp, you will learn the basics of Arduino coding and how to use breadboard, LEDs, buttons, servos, speakers, and potentiometers to make exciting projects that light up, make sounds, and move. The classes are taught using a blend of lecture, discussion and modeling. I will demonstrate how to use a breadboard to build circuits, and how to write the code to control the Arduino microcontroller through an Arduino simulation program called...
I am an experienced middle and high school science teacher of thirty years. I have taught an introduction to engineering class with a focus on Arduino-based inventions for several years. I personally have designed and created many of my own Arduino projects and I am excited and enthusiastic about helping students learn to code.
Students who wish to use a real Arduino will need to have the following materials: Arduino Uno, USB cable, solderless breadboard, 20 male jumper wires of different colors, 3 200-ohm resistors, 2 1000-ohm resistors, several different LEDs, RGB LED, potentiometer, passive speaker, servo, and a pushbutton. They will also need to download and install the Arduino IDE from www.arduino.cc. Students who wish to use the virtual internet-based Arduino simulator, called TinkerCad, need to create their own account at www.tinkercad.com and have a computer with internet capability. Recommended kit - has the most items that can be also be used for Arduino Classes Parts 2 and 3 as well. https://www.amazon.com/EL-KIT-001-Project-Complete-Starter-Tutorial/dp/B01CZTLHGE/ref=asc_df_B01CZTLHGE/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=241907595991&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8544331822937541734&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9015321&hvtargid=pla-464156272733&psc=1
In addition to the Outschool classroom, this class uses:
I have been a private school middle and high school science teacher for over 30 years. During that time, I taught classes in chemistry, engineering, earth science, life science, chemistry, forensic science, biology, and health. I enjoy teaching...
