Lesson Plan: Introductory Electronics Tutorials

The Make Course is open to students from all Departments at USF. The tutorials (more are coming) below are intended to help students from non-Electrical Engineering departments with the design of electronic control systems.
There are many helpful resources on the internet to help you get going with setting up breadboarded circuits with the Arduino. A fairly comprehensive resource is Ladyada.
