Arduino 101 Class
Our third Arduino 101 class at Tam Makers went really well. I taught this evening course with co-instructor Donald Day on Thursdays, from June 16 to 30, 2016, at the woodshop in Tam High School in Mill Valley.
We worked with an enthusiastic group of seven students, including adults with diverse backgrounds, as well as a couple high school students. Our partner Geo Monley worked both as a mentor and as a student during the hands-on sessions.
We started the class at 6pm, by giving students an overview of how circuits work. We then learned how to use a multimeter, how to solder electronics, and how to control rainbow-colored NeoPixel lights.
Students seemed to really enjoy this class and told us they learned a lot from it. Several expressed an interest in taking intermediate and advanced classes in the future. This is one of our first maker courses at Tam Makers, and we’re really happy that it is going so well; we look forward to teaching more classes in the fall.
