Workshop Virtual Engineering, Electronics, and Coding Adv

FREE - OPEN to ALL

Join us for five live classes on Engineering and coding using Tinkercad circuits and the Arduino Uno.

These classes are live and virtual and will be delivered by Isabel Mendiola and Peter Haydock from Gearbox Labs in English.

Explore digital prototyping, DC circuits, physical computing, and more.

Before taking this one, you should take one of the Intro and Intermediate Tinkercad workshops or have experience working with Tinkercad circuits.

Explore the world of Arduino-connected sensors and CAD, engineering design, and coding with Gearbox Labs. This live and virtual workshop will be delivered by Isabel Mendiola and Peter Haydock.
