An arduino is an open-source single-board microcontroller designed to make the process of using electronics in multidisciplinary projects more accessible. In short, you learn basic programming language and write commands to the arduino (microprocessor). These commands are used to direct a small robot car to move in various directions to create artwork that you've designed with the commands.
Each day, students (you'll work in pairs) will be able to design, program to create and then take home drawings that the robot car has drawn for them. Or teach the robot to write your name in cursive.
