IEEE Northern New Jersey Section ARDUINO/SNAP CIRCUITS WORKSHOP
Hands on Arduino and Snap Circuit® Workshop for beginners, sponsored by the IEEE North NJ Section, IEEE Young Professionals, WIE and FDU, STEM Institute of Education ( www.fdu.edu/SIE). Our goal is to introduce middle school and high school students to electronic devices and basic circuit theory. Snap Circuits® makes learning electronics fun and easy. The components are mounted on a plastic module, labeled clearly with the actual circuit symbols and snap together easily to form circuits. In the projects we will learn to control the circuit with the Arduino microcontroller.
