Introducción a la robótica: Construye un brazo robótico (codificación, programación y STEM)

In this class students will get introduced to robotics using the popular Arduino microcontroller. Students should come prepared with their Arduino & component kit, necessary components can be found in the attached spreadsheet component list

Class #1: Students will use the virtual classroom TinkerCAD to learn about micro-controllers. Using the virtual electronic components provided in TinkerCAD students will create a small circuit then write a simple program.

Class#2:  Students will build a simple circuit using push buttons and LED's. They will then right a simple Arduino program to interact and control their L.E.D. circuit.  Once complete student's will build the same circuit at home & then use their code written in TinkerCAD to control their Arduino circuit at home.

Class #3 Students will build their 1st servo motor circuit and use an Arduino program to control their servo motor's motion.

Class# 4 Students will build 2 more servo motor circuits and a small control circuit to interact with their now 3 total servo motor circuits

Class #5 Students will fix any issues with previous circuits and write a test program to control their 3 servo motors

Class #6 Students will begin building a microcontroller based electronic project and write a program to test the basic operation of their builds

Class #7 Student's will continue working on the microcontroller based electronic project making sure that the circuit is built properly and their final program is controlling their circuit as expected

Class #8 Student's will  be introduced to the process of creating their own unique circuit board.
