Library Courses

These are my course notes for courses I plan on teachibng at the Wendell Free Library.

  • Scratch For Kids This is a course for school age kids (4th through 6th grade) teaching computer programming using the Scratch programming environment.
  • Sonic Pi For All Ages This is a course teaching Sonic Pi, which is a programming environment for making music. This is an all-ages course.
  • Arduino And Robotics For Kids A fun course learning about electronic circuits and robotics.

Questions

How big is the HeadlightBoard PCB?

It measures 109.2 × 15.2 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the HeadlightBoard use?

9 parts, built around the TIP120. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the HeadlightBoard KiCad files?

From the RobertPHeller/LibraryCourses repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is ArduinoAndRoboticsForKids/HeadlightBoard/HeadlightBoard.kicad_pcb and its schematic ArduinoAndRoboticsForKids/HeadlightBoard/HeadlightBoard.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the HeadlightBoard design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
