The lessons in this book offer an accessible STEM curriculum. Classes based on it are currently taught in a growing number of high school classrooms. Students and teachers alike are supported on the companion website, www.LearnCSE/com. 

Aided by more than 250 color photos, illustrations, and diagrams, the lessons and exercises in the book teach how to program and use the Arduino singleboard computer. In the process, the reader learns: How to program in C, the language underlying the most commonly used programming languages; 

How to identify and use common electronic components and sensors; How to perform electronics-specific tasks, such as creating a circuit board; How to construct, program, communicate with, and control robotic devices, including servos, LEDs, DC motors, infrared communicators, push buttons, potentiometers, NeoPixels, and H-bridges. Sample code provides starting points in each of the lessons. Through all of this, the reader is connected to career paths where these skills are in high demand. 

Best of all, the reader gets excited about learning how to program. LearnCSE’s methods are designed for hands-on learners; they stimulate creativity as well as problem solving and critical thinking

Introduction 

The Arduino™ is an extremely popular single-board computer that can be used to make a vast variety of intelligent devices. With this book you will learn how to work with the Arduino™ itself, to identify and control common electronic components used with an Arduino,™ and, most important of all, to write programs for the Arduino.™ his book is for you if you want to understand, program, and use the Arduino™ to make things that work. 

It is also for you if you want to teach Arduino™ programming. We believe this mastery is valuable for three reasons: 1. Industry demands and career opportunity: he key component of the Arduino™ is a microcontroller from the Atmel Corporation. 

Learning to program and apply an Arduino™ is also learning to program and apply a microcontroller, a skill that is in heavy demand in industry. 2. As a basis for learning other programming languages: he Arduino™ is programmed in a version of the C programming language.

Consequently, knowledge of the syntax of Arduino™ C transfers to learning higher-level languages, including C++, C#, Java, and Python, which are all currently used in industry. 3. Satisfaction and fun: he Arduino™ can be used as the computing component for many diferent kinds of devices. 

Students who have completed the lessons in this book have gone on to design, build, and program robots that walk, sensors that record and report data, musical instruments, and quadcopters that ly, among other things. 

You will guide and pace your own learning. Each lesson builds upon and extends the content of the preceding lessons. And each lesson is constructed as it would be presented in a classroom, beginning irst with key concepts and ending with exercises in applying that knowledge: Big Idea: 

he major concept or skill the lesson conveys. Everything else in the lesson supports this idea. Background: he underlying theory, and, when appropriate, the science behind the content of the lesson. Understanding the background of new material enhances your ability to apply that knowledge. 

Vocabulary: New terms are highlighted in yellow when they introduced in text. hose terms and their definitions are also conveniently arranged in a table (with a yellow banner heading) for reference.
