Completion of this course earns a certificate for 5 units of elective credit. This certificate may be used to demonstrate academic enrichment and support school transcripts or applications.

Arduino is an easy-to-learn controller board used in robotics and throughout many industries for prototyping.

It is the ultimate beginner tool for creating cool and exciting science projects.

This course is an exciting and educational introduction to robotics and coding. It is designed for students who want to understand how technology works at the hardware level — not just snap pieces together.

In this hands-on class, students learn how to build and program real robotic systems using Arduino, a widely used open-source electronics platform.

Students will work with sensors, motors, and microcontrollers to build projects that respond to input and produce useful outputs. The course covers how to use the Arduino IDE and programming language to write the code that powers each device.

Whether turning on an LED, activating a motor, or posting data online, students gain practical experience and a strong foundation in both hardware and software.

Public schools do not spend enough time teaching Arduino robotics to students.

Benefits:
- Gain real coding and robotics experience not taught in local schools
- Build an impressive portfolio for college applications
- Small class size allows for personalized support and more hands-on time
- Inspire future learning and possible careers in technology and engineering

Why this is GATE:
Structured skill progression toward certification using industry-standard Arduino workflows

This course is the perfect starting point for any student interested in robotics, engineering, or technology.
