No coding or past experience required. Students will receive an Arduino kit and additional sensors at the conclusion of BYTE to continue their exploration. Using Arduino Uno, students will learn how software and hardware work together to solve problems and/or complete tasks. Students will learn how to read Python code, write basic lines of code, learn about circuits and Ohm’s Law, and more. In addition to building and coding pre-planned Arduino projects, students will also plan, build, and code their own projects. Right click here to open a new window and apply for scholarships.
