1-Day Course: Arduino Programming

Arduino Programming 

"Getting Started with Arduino: Hands-On Microcontroller Programming" is a fast-paced, beginner-friendly workshop designed to introduce participants to the world of embedded electronics and physical computing using the Arduino platform. Over the span of three hours, learners will gain practical experience in writing simple programs, wiring basic electronic components, and creating interactive projects using sensors and actuators.

Through guided instruction and hands-on exercises, participants will learn how to set up the Arduino development environment, understand the structure of an Arduino sketch, and control hardware like LEDs, buttons, and analog sensors. The workshop concludes with a small project that integrates these concepts, allowing learners to build their own working prototype.

Whether you're a student, hobbyist, educator, or aspiring maker, this course will give you the foundational knowledge and confidence to begin building your own Arduino-based creations.


Workshop Outline

Session 1: Introduction & Setup (30 mins)

Topics Covered:

  • What is Arduino?
  • Applications of Arduino in real-world projects
  • Overview of Arduino boards (Uno, Nano, Mega)
  • Required tools & software: Arduino IDE

Activities:

  • Install the Arduino IDE
  • Connect and verify the Arduino board
  • Upload a basic sketch (e.g., Blink)

Session 2: Core Programming Concepts (45 mins)

Topics Covered:

  • Arduino code structure: setup() and loop()
  • Digital I/O: pinMode(), digitalWrite(), digitalRead()
  • Serial Monitor & Serial.print() for debugging
  • Basic components: LEDs, buttons

Hands-On:

  • Modify the Blink sketch (change pin, timing)
  • Button-controlled LED

Break (10 mins)

Session 3: Analog I/O and Sensors (45 mins)

Topics Covered:

  • analogRead() and analogWrite()
  • PWM and LED brightness
  • Reading sensor data (e.g., potentiometer, LDR)

Hands-On:

  • LED brightness with potentiometer
  • Sensor-based control (e.g., light-activated LED)

Session 4: Mini Project & Wrap-up (50 mins)

Mini Project Options :

  • Smart Light: LED reacts to ambient light
  • Temperature Alert: Use a temperature sensor to turn on a buzzer or LED
  • Simple Traffic Light: LED sequence with delays and button input

Wrap-Up:

  • Showcase mini projects
  • Quick recap and Q&A
  • Share resources for further learning (websites, tutorials, communities)
