The Inputs and Outputs of Physical Computing with

Arduinos I

You’ve heard that you can do anything with Arduinos. Learn what it’s

all about in this hands on introduction to physical computing. Students

will use the Arduino microcontroller together with a kit that provides

a platform for lessons in physical computing programming. The C

programming language will be used to develop Arduino sketches which

are uploaded to run on the device. This course introduces programming

methods including structure and variables of coding the Arduino

platform while learning about digital inputs and outputs as information is

passed between Arduino and computer. Several projects are completed

over the course of the class, and students can continue to hone their skills

working on Arduino projects with the kit that they’ll be taking home.

Note:

Kit required for this class. Purchase kit from FCC bookstore prior to

class start.

The Inputs and Outputs of Physical Computing with

Arduinos II

Continue your exploration of the world of Arduinos. In this class students

will use the Arduino microcontroller together with a kit that provides the

platform for lessons in physical computing programming. Expand your

knowledge of Arduino sketches and the C programming language by

developing Arduino sketches which are uploaded to run on the device.

This course reviews the programming methods including structure and

the variables of coding the Arduino and takes the student further into

programming by introducing programming with functions and libraries.

Students complete several projects during the course of the class and can

continue exploring the world of physical computing with the kit they’ll be

taking home.

Motor Control Using the Arduino

Motor control is the key to building a robot or car on the Arduino

platform. In this workshop, students will use the Arduino microcontroller

together with a kit that provides a platform for lessons in motor control.

This course reviews the programming methods, including structure

and variables of coding Arduino, while taking the student further by

specifically introducing the H-Bridge, how to build an H-Bridge on

a breadboard and how to use the Arduino for speed control of the

H-Bridge. Arduino sketches will be used and uploaded to run on the

device. Students can expand their repertoire of Arduino skills with the kit

that they’ll take home.

Microcontroller Fundamentals

Welcome to the world of microcontrollers! Learn the fundamental

concepts of microcontrollers on the popular Arduino platform. You’ll

delve into the world of microcontrollers and how they are used. This

hands on workshop uses a microcontroller, a breadboard, and electronic

components to teach the prototyping of electronic circuits with

microcontroller operation. Students then use the breadboard to connect

components to the microcontroller. Finally, you’ll use pre-written code

to program the Arduino to interact with components. The provided kit is

yours to take home where you can use it to further hone your skills. It is

recommended that students have familiarity with physical computing.
