LOCATION
This is an introductory course about the credit card sized computer Raspberry Pi.
Small as it is, the Raspberry Pi packs quite a punch. The course will teach you to hook up the Pi with a keyboard, mouse and monitor so you can use it as a low cost computer. You will learn how to interact with the hardware of the Pi, something you normally don't do with your home computer. You will learn basic electronics so you can connect your Pi to other electronic things and finally you will learn how to make your Pi talk to and control them. At the end of this course you will know:
- what a computer is
- how a computer works
- how to program computers using the powerful Python programming language
- basic electronics
- how to build basic electronic circuits
- how to connect those circuits to your Pi
- how to program your Pi with Python to control those electronic circuits
The course does not assume any prior knowledge on computers, programming or electronics. 12 sessions, 6:00—8:00 p.m.
