Introduction
Measuring light with a photoresistor demonstration
This course is designed for beginner makers. I will help you get started with the basics of creating circuits with the Arduino prototyping board, and by the end of this course you will have an Internet-connected home environment monitoring gadget, build with your own hands! The only pre-requisite is a basic understanding of voltage, current and resistance, and ability to download and install software on your computer. A basic understanding of programming is a bonus, but not necessary.

A geek since birth, I have been teaching for over 15 years. Internet of Things is my thing! I am fascinated by technology because of its ability to make amazing things happen. I am an Electrical and Computer Engineer, have a PhD (most of which was spent reading philosophy of knowledge) and a couple of Masters in Information Systems. I am am a lecturer for over 13 years in a variety of IT (and occasionally management) subjects. During this time, I have developed a hands-on teaching style, whereby I invite and challenge my students to learn by doing. I have taught thousands of students in dozens of undergraduate and postgraduate courses. I am also a software developer at Futureshock Enterprises, making applications using Ruby, Ruby on Rails, and iOS. I have been an electronics enthusiast since I can remember, that's a long time... Now, I am particularly fascinated by the rapid prototyping opportunities that the Arduino and similar platforms has brought about. I live in Sydney, Australia.
