Day 1 and 2: Tinkercad Circuits and Arduino
Before the workshop started, GearBox Labs sent me both the arduino kit and the lesson books in English and Spanish. The first workshop covered the first projects. Having only known that Tinkercad Circuits existed but never having used it in a powerful way, the first two hour segment of learning was focused on understanding the pieces of the kit as well as to start to play with Tinkercad Circuits. | |
The second day when the virtual intersected with the physical, a lot of what I was learning started to actually click into place. What I have learned about myself is that at first I am a very quiet learner who will basically follow step by step because I have no clue what I am doing. I am not one to interrupt or ask questions when I am overwhelmed with new learning. I really appreciated the slow pace of the first day because for me it felt like there was a lot that I didn't know. | |
