  • Understand capabilities and applications of microcontrollers
  • Utilize microcontroller interface
  • Learn about voltage, current and resistance using Ohm’s Law
  • Visual understanding of the hardware structure of Arduino UNO
  • Understand Arduino UNO programming GUI (Graphical User Interface)
  • Analyze and troubleshoot circuits using Ohm’s Law to calculate specs
  • Read PCB schematics and build circuits on breadboards
Who should take this workshop: Anyone who is interested in this field and wants to learn how to use a microcontroller in a super easy 1-session workshop. 

Career applications for this workshop: This workshop develops the fundamental skills to get started using microcontrollers in robotics, electronics design, sensor control and IoT (Internet of Things, the interconnection via the Internet of computing devices embedded in everyday objects).

Workshop Microcontrollers Kit: The Basics Kit is used for classwork and is available for purchase. Kits are also available on loan during workshops and office hours for no charge, but can't be taken home.

    Mohammed taught a superb class and would give a 5 star review based on his teaching methods and patience. Aside from the great class getting into the building was frustrating because the elevator needed a key. To bring or not to bring laptops, that is the question. The Arduino programs needed to be uploaded into their laptops which took some time. Averall it was a very good experience.

    This class was exactly what I needed. This class is great for those who know nothing about IoT but want to get started. By the end of the class I had an LED set up and programmed to blink. Mohammed was an excellent teacher and very patient. Things went so well that I paid for 2 hours of private tutoring to get help with a project I was working on. I started on IoT on my own reading online tutorials. Save yourself a lot of frustration and take a class with someone who knows what they are doing. Understanding the fundamentals and being able to ask questions directly is sooo helpful. IoT and microcontrollers are so much more fun when things actually work.

    I took the beginner and intermediate Arduino courses and I am very satisfied with both. The curriculum satisfies the curiosity of those who want a solid learning on how Arduino works and explore all its possibilities. Additionally, on each class you will walk away with a fully developed hands-on project to see applications of the theory. Mohammed is a very professional and patient instructor, he will give you very good slides and you will even have office hours for questions. I recommend it fully.

    Duro’s workshop has been rewarding on many levels. The staff are highly supportive, driven, and engaged. Our instructor was great at explaining the material needed to complete our projects. Already I have learned the basics of electrical engineering, program hardware through Arduino, and pitching to investors. I’ve also gotten helpful advice on improving my LinkedIn.
