"This is a short Arduino build I did and decided to share with other arduino beginners. This is a complete tutorial to show you how to use a potentiometer to control an LED's brightness with your Arduino microcontroller."

In this Arduino tutorial I will demonstrate how to correctly connect the LM35 temperature sensor to the Arduino. I will also show you how to write the code necessary to obtain the temperature from the sensor.

The open source hardware platform Arduino has been the central platform of my electronics class since the beginning of 2008 and I've learned a lot in that time. I use the Arduino to teach some basic programming and introductory electronics concepts. This course led me to create a website (http://electronics.flosscience.com/) to help support my students as well as others who might want to use this platform in education. Now I'm ready for the next step.

This article should acquaint you with basic Arduino programming and show you how to write programs that interact with objects in the real world. (A mandatory disclaimer: the last time I really studied electronics was way back in high school, so this article focuses more on the programming aspects, rather than the electronic side of things.)

A great beginners project for learning about the Arduino.

This document explains how to connect your Arduino board to the computer and upload your first sketch.

Pearltree featuring Arduino resources

Fantastic series of tutorials for the Arduino.

Interesting combination of Computer Technology and GIS.

I'm really starting to like what I see in Processing. I think this language will be suitable for the full range of students, from the beginners in ICS2O or ICS3x, to the robotics programmers in TEJ4M (via Arduino). Note that it can create standalone applets or applications, which is appealing to the students. 

Modkit is an in-browser graphical programming environment for microcontrollers.
