Designed by Teachers
Terri Sligar and Chad Norman have taught Science, Math, and Technology for grades 5-12 for a combined total of over 40 years in Washington State. After years of teaching Arduino programming and physical computing and studying student/computer interaction, we were determined to achieve the following goals:
* Create a more user friendly platform that eliminates the need for using a breadboard. * Provide a physical scaffolding for the electronic components traditionally included in Arduino starter kits. * Design modular components that would accept most common panel mounted or socket style electrical components. |

Odyssey Board:
This kit was designed around the incredibly popular Arduino microcontroller. The objective is to make learning as accessible and engaging as possible for users of all ages and abilities. It combines creative problem solving and logic with art, computer programming, and science. Curriculum: Ten lessons have been developed for use in schools, libraries, museums, science centers, and homes. A detailed instructional guide and teacher lessons are accessible upon purchase. Starter code is available for each lesson to use and modify. Lessons will help users understand how the code works together with sensors, lights, motors, and speakers to create incredibly interesting and useful systems. |
