These free starter activities are designed to provide an introduction to coding as well as a lesson in sensor technology using Vernier sensors and Arduino microcontrollers. Students get excited when they see coding come to life through hands-on technology. Integrating Vernier sensor technology with Arduino shows students how the physical world connects to the computer-centric activity of learning to code.
Integrating Vernier sensor technology with Arduino connects the physical world to the computer-centric activity of learning to code. Teaching students about the underlying physics in our technology opens the door for them to explore and become interested in how technology works. Students get excited when they see coding come to life through hands-on technology.
We have two activities, along with a step-by-step teacher guide, for students to begin with the basics of coding with an Arduino and quickly move to integrating Vernier sensors into code.
