Course Highlights
Master Arduino programming to create innovative projects. This Arduino Programming for Kids & Beginners with Tinkercad course will guide you through basic electrical engineering and various computer science topics.
First, you’ll learn how to create a Tinkercard account. Next, you’ll understand what is Arduino and why it’s used. Gradually, the Arduino Programming course will take you through electrical engineering concepts. The course will teach you about Ohm’s law and describe how to create an LED circuit on a breadboard from scratch.
Moreover, the Arduino Programming course will provide details on programming single and multiple LEDs. You’ll understand how traffic lights work and how to program a traffic light with Arduino. You’ll also understand how push buttons work and the methods for programming single and multiple push buttons. The Arduino Programming course will demonstrate the steps in programming a tilt sensor, motion sensor, RGB LED, and potentiometer. You’ll understand how an electric motor works and how to control servo motors with Arduino. Finally, you’ll realise how to create a smart home project with Arduino where you can control various devices with automation.
