Arduino is one of easiest platform to learn digital making. However, many students, as well as the teachers, still find it is difficult to get started and get familiar with Arduino. This could be due to two reasons:

  • Most of the students and teachers do not have knowledge in either electronics or coding or both;
  • Most of the beginner’s guide and sample codes are developed by the technical persons who do not understand the pains of the non-technical people.

This product is developed by non-technical persons aiming to solve common problems for beginners who want to learn Arduino and digital making for the first time. The learning material is intentionally designed to allow the beginners to see the results (programming output) immediately, get excited and then follow the explanations on how things work.

Description

The Arduino Board for Classroom

Maker UNO X  is our take on the most Classroom-friendly Arduino-compatible board. It is the culmination of years of teaching Arduino & STEM by our education partners –Chumbaka, ARUS, and rero EDUteam. We designed Maker UNO X to be easy to teach in the classroom and beginner friendly for any students.

Get Straight to the Fun!

Get your students to start coding, experimenting ideas and implementing cool stuff first. Get them excited with what they can do with Arduino, instead of enduring the hassle of troubleshooting circuits with messy wires, and in the end, got fed up after their first lesson.
