Class experience
Your kid will learn to work through coding and building activities that encourage them to develop solutions for the problems in the world around them. Using the popular Arduino microcontroller platform, they will put together simple electronic circuits and write programs (Arduino “sketches”) to create projects that light up, move, and make sound. Device needs for camp: Computer running Windows, MacOS, or Linux (NO CHROMEBOOKS). We’ll be using the Seeed Studio Grove Beginner Kit for Arduino...
