Hello Niles, Your course was very instructive at the beginning and about two-thirds of the way through. How to obtain information regarding the instruction set for Arduino on what syntax programming terms/definitions and applying them to a sketch were very comprehensive. As mentioned before there was a lack of information on programs instruction in the latter part which I assume after you had shown prospective students how to find this information then it was up to them. It would have been nice to know what components we should have as a preecquiste in your outlining presentation for your course. Overall it was very instructive for a student to basically have an understanding of how to formulate basic Arduino Programing. Thank you very much for all your help in me completing this course with Discovering Arduino Programming. Cheers, Millard Alexander

Instructor Bio

I Graduated in 1990 with a B.S. in Computer Engineering. My first 14 years I worked at an engineering consulting firm developing Ethernet print servers, terminal servers, and Ethernet Bridges. I worked on the PCB and low level microcode but mostly FPGA/ASIC logic design. Next, I moved on to video camera development where I've written user interface microcode but mostly focus on FPGA logic design that handles  component communications and all the image processing from the imager through to the  display. I've always enjoyed collecting evaluation/development boards, so when I came across the Arduino platform, I realized it was something special - so easy and quick to develop on. I needed to put together a class to share this interest with others!
