Hi Folks, If you are interested in learning to make Arduino like projects (or if you wish to learn more about microcontrollers), you may want to consider the following. Beginning January 22, there there will be a free on-line course on microcontrollers offered by the U of Texas at Austin through EdX . The name of the course is; Embedded Systems- Shape the World. You can read about it, watch the intro video, and sign up at; https://www.edx.org/course/utaustinx/utaustinx-ut-6-01x-embedded-systems-1172. I hope to lean heavily on the mooc to deliver lecture content for a laboratory course I am developing on computer interfacing (this is an experiment that could work very well or might just crash and burn). While the EdX course will be taught with the idea of programming in C, I am going to use the alternative, Arduino like program Energia in my course. The EdX course prerequisites are listed as "Computer programming course in any language with exposure to variables, arithmetic, logic, loops, and functions. High school physics course covering current, voltage, resistance, and power." I am recommending a computer course, but not requiring it. If you are interested in participating in my "Arduino like" alternative, let me know and we can see if we can figure out a way to include you. Jack -- -- Post to this group at [email protected].
