  Standard Set Answer:

  I design interfaces every day, but I want to do something physical that involves techology.

  I want to have the ability to build my own basic arduino projects, and troubleshoot the electronics and code when they go wrong.

  I have been on one day-long Arduino course but it wasn't quite enough to launch me into a place where I can help people on a course. I can help with any UX Design questions though :) 

  Public Set Answer:

  I have a Sparkfun Snap-off Arduino with LDR, LED, buzzer and a few other things on it.

  I went on a one-day course about 6 mths ago.

  I did a Computer Science paper at Uni, I ended up being able to write basic C.

  Standard Set Answer:

  I'm leading a class at a small high school on robotics.  I have experience in computer programming and industrial and artistic fabrication, and so I can build a lot, but I'd like to connect the programming to whatever I decide to build.

  I'd like to learn fairly quickly the ins and outs of the arduino so I can lead a variety of projects on them.

  I'm probably not qualified to teach this.  I'm here to learn.  Preferably at my own pace.

  Public Set Answer:

  Yes, I build a few different robots as a kid and in college as parts of art projects.  

  Not yet... soon our science class should have two.

  I'm a curious geek, trying to keep my mind open.

  Location: Europe

  Standard Set Answer:

  I like the Arduino project, the Open Source ideas and the Robotics.

  I hope I will gain enough knowledge about Arduino to start some simple robotics projects. I bought one Arduino card and a couple of books but I don't have time to start to read them,. I hope with this course I will have the right basic to then start read those books faster and beter

  I'd like to help, I don't know how I can.

  Public Set Answer:

  I did some electronics projects at the University ages ago. To be honest the University courses were really boring and too much "theorical" about this.

  Yes, I have one Arduino. I just bought one!

  Taking my programming skills to next level, using it on real things - I simply LOVE this idea! I'm interested in any help I'll be able to offer.

  Public Set Answer:

  I have some programming knowledge and I'm very excited about taking it to "real world". Just starting this adventure with my new Arduino Uno. Let's hack the planet ;)

  Standard Set Answer:

  • I have a big interest in electronics, but not much knowleadge. I find the arduino very interesting and I want to get more knowleadge to be able to work with it and use my ideas that I have build up in my mind!

   

  • I hope to be able to build electronic things and to get a knowleadge foundation of electronics. 

   

  • I don't think that I have enough knowleadge to be able to help that much.

  Public Set Answer:

  No. I do know a lot about computers, but I haven't build anything electronics before. But the will to do it is great!

   

  No I don't have an Arduino, but I plan on getting one! Especially if I find this course usefull, which I think I will.
