Here are some ideas for classes that we think the Freeside community would love -

Electronics and Microcontrollers

There are a lot of great electronics resources at Freeside, but sometimes people need a review of the basics to get started. Students can pay for the class and/or materials for the following topics:

  • Basic Electronics + Soldering
  • ICs and Oscilloscopes
  • Electromagnetism and Circuit Design
  • Arduino 101
  • Arduino for Data Logging / Ethernet
  • Raspberry Pi 101
  • Raspberry Pi Servers!
  • XBMC on Raspberry Pi (RasPi Media Center)
  • TI MSP-430 101
  • JeeNode, Ninja Blocks, BeagleBone, NETduino, etc...
  • Fun with Analog and Digital LEDs
