February Freeduino Frenzy

February Freeduino Frenzy is a workshop that will happen on Feb 13, 2011. It will consist of several experiments that will teach the student how to do basic circuits and coding on the Arduino platform. Some of the projects will closely follow the Spring Training from the Spring of '10, some of the projects are brand new! Sign up and lean valuable skill on how to use and program your Freeduino or Arduino.

You will need to bring a laptop and a Freeduino. Do not sign up if you do not have a laptop or Freeduino! You will need the laptop to program the Freeduino.
