The training conducted at Arusha Technical College gathered almost 120 participants of both Ordinary and Bachelor degrees. Each day was divided into three sessions in order to make the workshops more comfortable and practical for all the students. During the workshops, they learnt about the basics of electronic circuits and could familiarize themselves with Arduino-based TME EDU KIT. They could explore its functions, test the board’s peripherals and their application in real-life experiments. At the end, the participants could test their newly acquired knowledge by applying it to the last two projects.
