CSCI110 - Diving into Research

For a number of years I've had an interest in programming microcontrollers to perform simple tasks. I've been using them as part of my teaching and in various other projects. One of our recent seniors used microcontrollers to oversee his honors projects. In our Diving into Research class we will learn how to program a microcontroller, as part of a simple circuit, and then build electronics that can be managed by the computer. This is the device we will be programming and teachinng to do tasks. This will lead us to robotics, "intelligent devices",and a lot of other interesting topics. The purpose of this class is to have FUN. you should have an interest in computers and how they work. Together we'll do some simple programming so ideally you'll be taking CSCI 120 or equivaalent. This is a 0.5 credit course each semester - the total course goes for a full year giving you 1.0 credit. Many people take CSCI 110 along with another First Year Seminar. Fulfills the Formal Analysis requirement.
